is there any place to practice
« on: March 09, 2009, 09:24:44 AM »
I have a client who is 83 years old and he wants to drive his Jag. as fast as he can but does not want to do the speed week deal.  Does anyone know where he can go to see what the car can do, more of practice run? We can go any where in the states.  Any help would be great. Thanks Matt

World of Speed, 130 club would be the safest I can think of.... If the Jag does more than 140 he won't get a time slip but I doubt that will be a concern...  :-D

Texas Mile or Maxton.

WOS 130 is a great experience.

LSR, because it takes more than one ball to play.

Thanks for the info.  I think these are more of the lines he is looking for.

Speaking of practicing... We spotted Noonan the other day practicing in an undisclosed location.
