Well said Cbass, you are absolutely correct. There is nothing like starting out in a slowass car that helps you improve your driving skills to depend less on the potential of the car, and more on the potential of your driving. I started out in a 1985 dull gold corolla that had 280K miles on it, the little bastard ran great but I could get out and push faster then it took off. Another thing it helped with is judging situations correctly (can I make this turn before that car gets here). Even now when I am in a more powerful car that doesn't bog or anything, I still take the same cautious approach more out of old habbit then anything.
