Kim is a very highly skilled driver. She kicks butt at Nelson so what's a few cones to dodge? Look out she's a fast women. My favorite kind.

The cones are more spread out at Nelson's.

I'm only afraid of hitting any cones at autox and getting orange cone smudges on my red mini, orange is not my color.

Crashton - Fast cars and fast women, Babs needs to teach me some more racing tips. What an influence you are to those weedhoppers down south.
