[s-cars] UrS as a Purpose Built Track Car

[Manuel Sanchez]

I have run a few track days with a baby seat in the back of the  
wagon. This was after my first child was born and as a first time  
parent I was trying to do everything right.  I had that seat so  
tightly anchored in there that I think a tornado could not have  
ripped it loose. When I went to tech the guy didn't believe me that  
it was in there really tight, when he tried to move it the whole car  
shook....... so it stayed in. That was a memorable track event.

While not a dedicated track car my old pig does OK and it sure beats  
a day at the office. Just returned from 2 beautiful days at VIR.
