Don't be intimidated guys, SCCA Solo II, which I suggested as an
excellent and inexpensive way to learn how you car handles at
the limit and beyond without damage to sheetmetal or ego, is
speed-limited by SCCA rules & regs to about a 70 MPH maximum
for the very fastest of prepared and all-out race cars. On a typical
SCCA Solo II course you will never get out of second gear in most
street cars.
