LOL! Not that kind of dream!

He's doing better with the convertible than he did with the Formula - gear box is a little more forgiving & the clutch doesn't grab so high.

The set-up went like this (& I'm still not sure who was setting up who)....He had to get dropped off at a party, so he comes down from doing his homework & says it's time to go. I say ok. He asks if we can take the convertible & I ask him if he wants to drive?

"REALLY?"

He texts his buddy to meet him out at the end of the driveway before we leave. As we get onto the street he can see that nobody is out there yet, so I tell him to go ahead and pull it in. Just as we turn into the driveway he sees his friends & they spot him. He rolled into the driveway in 2nd, with his foot on the brake & not on the clutch and stalled it right in front of them!

He could have rolled it in there with the doors hanging off & still blown them away!

Well, we've got a gravel driveway, so it's a little hard for the tires to grip....
