Gordon touched on a good point: we switch between our daily drivers with modern brakes and our "rolling anachronisms," and expect that we will adapt seamlessly, but that didn't happen in my case. I normally drive a BMW with upgraded brakes for occasional track use, and going from that to the Speedster was a recipe for disaster. I'm getting a significant brake upgrade to the Coupe, but I don't know if it will have a vacuum booster, so I will need to make sure that I am cognizant of any performance differences.
Be careful out there, guys. My accident could have been a lot worse.
