I can attest to that. George gave me a very wild and fast ride in his ur-q at Lime
Rock this past August. The car is fast, and simply amazing. A beautiful car
indeed. He did a nice job on it, that's for sure. (However, I think he should put
some harnesses in, IMHO...  it's a bit scary braking hard from 120 mph at the end
of the straight with just the OEM belts!! The car is too intense for just OEM.)

If he is at any of the QCUSA events in your area, check out the car, and see if
he'll take you for a ride!! He's a good driver/instructor, and you'll have quite
the thrill!!

BTW, FWIW, I have a picture of his car on my Lime Rock '97 page. There is a link
to it from my "home" page in my sig.
