I know what you are saying, but the white 86 really was just lame...... Was literally just driving around..... Wasn't going hard enough to even get a feel for it....

Fresh out of Hospital ( everything is where it is suppose to be , all is good in the world ) I did not even scare any kids while there , in fact a person at the Hospital was actually at the hiilclimb last week with two children ages 6 and 8 . The children where heard to squeal with DELIGHT, not FEAR as mine and many other cars whistled past.
So my learned detractor may have been a little confused (or have a different agender ).
My 10 cents worth on the FT86 driver is simple ( I will tell it to anyone who will listen ) but I never follow my own advise . But we do this driving thing to get enjoyment for ourselves , not to please others. You should drive as fast as you feel comfortable with , not beyond your skills or cars abilities. Not much point wrecking your machine and scaring yourself silly , build your pace and modify your car to suit . There is plenty of time to go fully sick. It can be a delicate balance between , money , vehicle usage ( track , road or both ) , all play role on how you approach an event most important thing is to have fun , if you are not having fun then , you will not be doing it for very long.

Couldn't agree more with drive at your own pace, but by the sounds of it my mum hoons to church on a sunday quicker than this guy was driving...
One thing i did find a little sad was hearing that 19 year old bought a gt86 and his insurance bill for the first year was $5,600 with a $1,500 excess, next year it is still $4,800 with the same excess.
Makes it worth holding out until you are older to get something new.
