    I won! I won!

    Best thing I've ever won at work, bar none:

    At the dealership I work at, the corporation has rewarded us with several spots in a racing school, and I won one of the spots! Next month, a co-worker and I will be flying down to Toronto and attending a racing school, all on the companies tab!

    Now all I need to do is brush up on my manual transmission skills...

    That's awesome, Spiffy. It sounds like it would be a blast.

    Enjoy the heck out of it while you're there.

        Mosport DDT is one hell of a fun track to drive on. ENJOY!

        Perhaps some day you can get on the big track on an open track day.

        Both are just a blast and a half, even in my old RX-7. It'll be a blast and a half in a real race car.

                Duuude! Okay, that is absolutely one of the most awesome things I've ever heard of winning in an office raffle.

                No, screw it, it is THE single most awesome thing ever in the history of prizes, ever. I'm so jealous.

                Two quesitons, though:

                1) Do you know if you get to keep the Nomex?
                and
                2) Which package did they sign you up for?
