Want to REALLY drive?

Soldier Systems Daily just completed a course at the Bob Bondurant School of High Performance Driving. They’re going to be running some articles (including video) from that experience, something I thought many of you reading this might be interested in.

Says SSD editor Eric Graves,

“Just like our greatest firearms trainers are the pinnacles in their field and have dedicated their lives to their craft, so has Bob Bondurant for racing. I hold him up as an American Legend, taking motor sports places it hadn’t gone before.”

You can follow the whole series as he posts it here; it begins with a great history of Bondurant and his background.

The featured image, of Bondurant in his 1963 Corvette Stingray Coupe, is from this interview in Sports Car Digest.

Now, for no particular reason, some of my favorite car chases from the big screen (in no particular order). If you don’t agree with my initial selection, feel free to opine. I have to warn you though – I don’t think you’ll be able to convince me that Bullitt and The 7 Ups don’t have the 2 greatest car chases of all time.)
