Took the GT5S for a nice spin and the wife usually assists in guiding me back into the garage because it is kind of difficult fitting 2 wide body cars inside. So after the car is in, she sits down facing me on my weight bench in front of the car to relax, and then my foot slips off the brake when shutting down the car in 1st gear to avoid run-on. The front of the car jumped ahead leaving skid marks and just missed her knee caps by about 1/2 inch before I was able to brake. As she sat there frozen looking at me, her feet were actually under the font air dam untouched by the car. I will never hear the end of this one. She then went and had a couple extre Martinis.

OMG!!

Thankfully no one was injured. But this is not a situation you want to leave open to a repeat.

I will incur some wrath from my Better Half, but I can move her mini-van out of the garage and easily handle one of your wide-body cars next to 2511.

Please contact me ASAP so I can arrange pick-up and your wife can sleep better at night.

Most Sincerely,

Larry

That is why I run a nerf bar. You can start these cars without depressing the clutch too!! If it is in gear...it going to leave a mark too.I have a rule with my race car...do not start the car unless you are behind the wheel.I have a friend that jumped his starter from under his truck, and ran over himself, lucky he only broke a finger.
