This one has a lot more drama - Ricardo Patrese takes wife around the track:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oIhGJyLR6TI

Winning six Formula One races, Patrese entered 257 Formula One World Championship Grands Prix and started 256 races making him the third most experienced F1 driver in history, after Rubens Barrichello and Michael Schumacher. He was championship runner-up in the 1992 Formula One season and third in 1989 and 1991.

Just great. He wheels that Honda like he's motoring down to the store to pick up a loaf of bread. His wife evidently didn't like it when he'd get down into the rumble strips at the apexes. She did look a bit excited, though.:)
 
Oh man, my mother is just a little better when we go out in the mustang...then again, she bickers at everyones driving (despite being just as bad, if not worse). Funny video though...man, i'd love to go on a track like that!

I drive the mustang a bit quick, but conservative most of the time, I want to keep it around and it is getting older. However, if my dad takes it out, he's had and driven it since he was 15, well...last time he took it out, mom came back looking like she'd seen a ghost:D

My mothers main move to let you know she doesn't appreciate your driving? the "phantom brake":yes:
 
"MAMA MIA ! RICARDO !" Hehehehehehe...An' I didn't think HE was tryin' all that hard, either. My dad certainly was no racing driver, but I remember one time, he "Got" one of the local Hot-Rodders" but good...He had a '66 250 SL Mercedes, the little "Pagoda-Roof" coupe/roadster, it stuck to the road like GLUE. 4 wheel discs, IRS, the whole 9 yards. He took this guy, Warren Ray, who was a "Hot" driver, for a ride out to the local golf course & back. Before they were halfway out there, Warren Ray was down in the floorboard, praying to Jesus...Another time, my dad, Henry, his brother, Karl, & another guy went to Knoxville to a UT football game, in Karl's Jaguar, the model before the XKE. Henry was driving, Karl was holding on to the dash w/a death grip, going, "HENRY ! HENRY ! Slow DOWN...Dammitt, Henry, SLOW DOWN..." Daddy said every time Karl started whining, he'd go that much faster...There's ONE great big long straight stretch down thru there, they'd been following a Caddy sedan doing about 100 or so, Henry got him in that straight, the guy sittin' in the rear of the Caddy just grinned & waved as they went by...After the football game was over, their 3rd passenger wouldn't ride back home w/'em...He took the train...(grin)
 
Sounds like my mom out on the sail boat. She hates the heeling. Or when my dads driving and she thinks he's going to hit some car or something.
 
Geez. growing up in the 60's and 70's my Dad had a variety of cars, a '65 Plymouth Barracuda with a High Performance 273, a '69 Ponitac Grand Prix big block, in the 70's a Chrysler 300 with the 440 Magnum, and a 455CID Oldsmobile to name a few. It was always He that complained my Mom's toe nails were "frosted" from having Her foot in the 4bbl carbs all the time LOL :)
