Watch a racer drive his mother around Laguna Seca

It would be easy to point and laugh at this poor old lady getting a bit frightened by her son's hot lap.

But that isn't a good reason not to, so we will. And so should you.

For no obvious reason, the driver's taken his mother - the woman that gave him LIFE - around Laguna Seca raceway, California, in his Corvette Z06 (read what Jeremy thinks about it here) at what looks like a thoroughly respectable lick. Her reaction? Not terribly impressed...

How would your mum react to a passenger ride on a racetrack?
