Speaking of…

I saw Jackie Stewart interviewed and he was waxing poetic about some car or another and how easy it was to drive. The thing that stuck with me was Jackie saying “You should never grip the controls any harder than you would grab a woman’s …”

I have an old, thin Nardi. Nothing does it for me like driving it up the canyon with nothing but my finger tips on that skinny wheel.

Agreed. When running Watkins Glen in my Cayman I ended up using only thumbs and index fingers by the end of two days of track time. Gentle, precise steering is all that is needed. No death grip here...
