Lift Turn Brake

Yeah, so, I went to rally school.  It was fucking awesome.  And it is amazing how a person can have driven so many thousands of miles while being so incredibly ignorant about how cars work.  For example, did you know that it is possible to literally steer with the brakes and not the steering wheel?  I was holding the wheel at a fixed position, but the car was going left or right based on what I did to the brake pedal.  It was surreal.

I could go over the events of the day and embellish things in the write places...like the time I was so bad in an exercise my instructor made me do it an extra 3 or 4 times while the entire class watched, however despite how awesome the experience was it would probably make a boring story.

I got some good pics to make my life looking exciting to NSA spooks and random acquaintances on facebook.  I also got a GoPro video of my performance on the last exercise, however my performance was absolutely abysmal.  There were a few turns that I did correctly, however even they don't look good from that camera position.  So no one is gonna see that footage unless we edit in some european rally cross.

If any one asks, though, I did awesome.  And we had a race at the end.  And I won.  And also Jennifer Morrison and Jenna Coleman were there.
