[QUOTE="HeavyH20, post: 12621126, member: 137832"] There is definitely a learning curve to driving a high horsepower car. Most folks picking up a GT500 have had other fast cars. Back, last year, when we first picked up a new RV and did not have the trailer yet, my wife drove the RV with the kids to the track (the night before) with me following in my car. On the way back, however, she preferred that I would drive the RV so she followed in my car. We ran into traffic and there was a point where she needed to catch up. She used to have a Mazda Mostly Plastic Vehicle (MPV) and to get rolling to pass, you would have to pretty much give it full gas. Well, she did the same thing in my car and lit them up at 65 MPH which caught her off guard. She was able to handle the back end getting loose, but, it was a bit unnerving for her. Bottom line, the power we take for advantage in a faster car is not normal in 99% of the cars out there, so lending such a vehicle to someone without that seat time, for even a routine event, can spell disaster.
