when my son was 17 we spent 3 days at a skip barber safety/driving course at lime rock. when he spun THEIR new viper off the track at 70 mph (at the direction of a brave instructor) the crowd gasped. there was no damage to the car, only to his ego. the end result was a college entrance essay about the physics of losing traction and pressing his own limits, which ended up getting him into brown university. not all teenage high speed events end up tragically.
