Also have virtually the entire Stephen King library as well if anybody is a fan.
Dave, I would actually be interested in borrowing a beginner driving book if you don't mind. Not really sure which would be the best but anything that you found helpful. Perhaps you can bring something to VIR in July?
ill start getting a list of all the books everyone has mentioned and see who i need to talk to about purchasing some of these books, if not at the library, possible for the club, the funds are there.
no offense, I found that anything with the "clubs" that one person borrows it and keeps it and its a pain in the ass to get anything. The only thing I havent had an issue with is actually from an alumni, RJ. The others ive pestered and pestered and gotten nowhere..

well we will just have to solve this problem then, and charge members if the item isnt returned
Shea, no problem. Just please try to remind me as it comes closer.
I've also had the problem of stuff disappearing, not necessarily the club's, b/c I have a tendency of forgetting who I have let borrow stuff. The new policy I think I'm going to adopt is that I will loan stuff out for a fee, to be placed in an envelope with that person's name and item, to be returned when the owner when I get my stuff back.
hah. I haven't hit that problem. Mine usually happens with tools. I'll be in the garage and see a hole where something was. Then I can't remember who I lent it to :-). With the new policy, at least I can buy a replacement without losing my ass on it.
No problem. I'll try and remind you when it gets closer to time and we can work on what the fee trade will be. Looking forward to getting some more perspective on racing technique.
