One lap, one lap.. and we'd be back in the pits. But, I had a student who was worse.
I instructed a lady at CMP one weekend, who was driving her husband's new 993, who never got out of 2nd gear. Most often she was in first! In fact, she finally spun out!! Turn 14, 1st gear, lifted at the apex. Next thing I knew, we were looking at a 15 car traffic jamb.
After many pep talks and much coaching, she finally let slip what her problem was. Are you ready for this?
The Porsche didn't have the "idiot" shift light on the dash like her 1983 Volvo did!
