It is possible to appreciate good driving without actually doing it yourself. ![Wink Wink](https://rtr-pca.org/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
I was referring to how I was taken to forests like those as a kid by my father and stood on the sidelines as those cars went flying by - nothing compares to the experience of being that close to a car as it flies by at speed - especially when all you experience is the roar of the engine, the glare of the headlights and the blast of air as they zoom by.
I've been there for overnight stages and early morning stages freezing my ass off to watch those cars fly by. My father and uncle were going to enter the RAC rally one year, but sadly ended up parking the car in a ditch on a practice run and never actually got to enter the race.
