What is the qualification, you ask? I consider a "qualified" person as one who has competition experience. Any of my autocrossing friends qualifies. From time to time, I have offered and allowed a friend to drive my C6Z06 in an autox when his own Corvette broke down. Another time, a less experienced friend drove my CTS-V and I coached him how to go through my favorite 100-mph on-ramp (downshift to 5th, hold speed at about 100 mph, steer, and never lift!).
