Going from a sports car to a sports car shouldn't hurt me on my insurance to bad. Now if they found out I got that careless driving ticket, that would be a different story. Cop upset me and got away with something, gave me a reckless driving at first, but it was reduced to careless. Basically, he was doing a 40 in a 30, I took off next to him on the lights, up to the speed limit. Went around the corner with my tires wet, sprinkler system was watering the street, accelerating like I did at the other lights, and I fish tailed. I gained control of the car very quickly, but the cop came after me. He was a real jerk and I asked him if he was going to give himself a ticket and he got upset with me again and actually was spitting at that point because he was so upset. He said he was allowed to do that. Ok, whatever. Working on reporting him, but it's amazing how there seems to be no one to report this inceident to except for other cops who defend him. Anyway, on with the subject.

In my opinion I think every person here should be taking a performance driving class if they aren't out racing 400 hp cars on the professional track. 400 hp is way overkill in a car and way more then anyone will ever need. It's mainly for show at that point unless you are doing it professional or towing. No one in their right mind really knows how to control a car with that much power no matter the driving year you have behind you, unless again you've done it professionally or learned the hard way. Even in my Mustang, I would be apt to go out and take a course jumping up another 100 hp to the Challenger. Look at the professionals out there that have been killed because they knew how to handle the power, people in NASCAR come to mind, I can't imagine the people out on the streets who have that kind of hp and no experience using it. Scary stuff.

Heck, if they built Autobahns here then things would be different that's for sure. We would grow up with NASCAR on our highways, who would want to watch it then when we would be driving it ourselves. I think that people on the Autobahn though learn respect really fast for their car and the power it has. What a way to learn though.
