Well I do have a little driving experience. My dad and I have taken his '07 GT500 to a couple track days, and I drive it a good bit out in the country. I also just traded in my '04 Lincoln LS V8 which I'd put some work into the suspension and engine, and I drove it about as hard as is safely possible, and occasionally more than.

I don't have any experience hard driving anything this light, though, or as well balanced or with as good of handling, so it will definitely be a new experience. I plan on my dad and I taking the Shelby and my Porsche to some more track days ASAP so I can see what I can do with it. It has brand new tires, by the way.
