Mary Drives
>>>>> back to PWRS index
What would happen if we put a cute but novice driver with zero track time against 30 fast Porsches? Porsche de Mexico was on to the challenge and Julien Busson expedited Mary's invitation to the Porsche World Road Show.
Mary arriving in style...
Not even sunrise and Mary is already posing in a photo shoot...
On to the driving...
Getting to know the product...
...and off she goes... instructors are brave...
She's literally "hitting the cones"... and she was damn fast... by Stephan's face I belive he thinks she's too fast... but look at Mary's face, she's smiling like a little kid, completely worth it if you ask me...
...and there she goes faster and faster... to fast for the camera... good job!!!
...afterwards she poses and smiles... she's a cutie...
...by the time she arrived to the long track she was already flooring the cars and taking every apex with singular ability... good for Mary...
...and she smiles... thumbs up to the track test... at this point instructor Stephan was amazed how fast she learned to drive fast yet with extraordinary finesse...
At the Moose Test she had to go through all the theory, she was about to spin a $120,000.00 USD Carrera 4S Cabriolet... here she is studying the diagram...
...and she waited for her turn... smiling of course...
...and there she goes !!!  ...with a smile of course... maybe a nervous smile...
...in car instructions are given... ready?
and there she goes at full speed... is she smiling in there? wow!!! she's really pushing that Carrera 4S to its limits...
...and she returns with a smile...
...and there she goes again !!! how come she gets another turn... maybe because she's a novice? maybe because she's a cutie...
At the off road she pays close attention to the instructions...
and off she goes carefully... look at that concentration...
After driving through the high water, we stop, she smiles and click!!!
...she's driving like a pro... and enjoying it...
...and she walked... back and forth to every test all over the track... who said the PWRS is easy work? there she is with a smile...
...more walking... and there she goes...
...and more driving... by this time she was flooring those Porsches with singular ability... absolutely no mercy to the gas pedal... always two hands on the steering wheel, eyes peeled on the road and in control...
...it was time to ride with the instructors...
I think she liked it...
Thumbs up to the Porsche World Road Show, Mary thanks Porsche de Mexico, specially to Julien Busson for the invitation, it was a great opportunity, it was a superbly organized event.

"Thanks PdM, Mary"
