Thanks, guys. I tried to duplicate it with my new car (not that I'll ever sell my Jag), but it just doesn't work the same -- nothing has made me feel as good as the Jag does. ~ H

driving experience
There are two (2) major ways to describe the adventurous experienced of RICHARD PETTY DRIVING IN NASCAR RACING:
a.\t The first is a RIDE ALONG EXPERIENCE. You'll ride in a two (2) Set NASCAR Style Stock Car driven by a well trained driving INSTRUCTOR. The car will do a three (3) LAP qualifying heat and run up to 165mph (miles per hour).

And thoughts on whether or not the Bertil Roos Racing School would be a good birthday gift for my father?

TC, drive the S600 before you get the S63. There is no substitute for the low end torque of that 12....esp when the blowers kick in. Its pure bliss. Also the 600 doesnt have the premium of the 65, esp one with 15k miles on it...a hidden gem

. PM if you wish, be happy to discuss it. Regards.

Thanks. I hear ya, those used 12s represent tremendous value. In the end, it's my wife's call since it will be her primary. She stumbled upon a CL63 when she was at A Rod having the CLS serviced last week and now she's all about that one.

Frankly I find the 5.5L to be adequate for our purposes. LOL
