500hp Cars And Teenagers.. Interesting Story From An M5 Forum...

[jsmith]

This is the reason why I believe that the rules regarding what cars young drivers can and can't drive is correct. Over the years I have done some truely stupid things however always by myself and that if I had been in some of the cars available today there is no doubt I would be dead.

My father never let me have more grunt than he thought was a good idea and that he thought I could handle.

Please also note that I have been driving cars in one form or another since I was 4 years old.

To the family of Josh, my condolences, I hope that anyone that reads this will have second thoughts about doing something stupid (though I doubt it) and just hope there is nothing like that happen on this forum.
