    When my wife and i were dating she couldnt drive a manual but i taught her in the formula. First time she drove it she never killed and drove it about 10 miles home. She has driven my ws6 down the driveway but thats it. The formula was alot faster but the ws6 is alot nicer and she says she doesnt want to mess it up. My dad let my stepmom drive his black 04 gto m6 and she ran off the side of the road, cut back, as it slid sideways it hit a signpost where the fender meets the door and pushed the fender in and caught the door and peeled it open and back and spun her around into the other ditch. He always babied it and it had 27,000 miles on it. He fixed it though. Now its lowered sitting on 18 inch evos and sap grilles. He was pissed though lol.

    I begged my wife to run my car seems I couldn't get it down the track like I wanted on my own. She does understand though, that my 'maro is my baby and it best stay in the middle of the lane. She's got a few kills on the street with me instigating and when I wasn't even with her. Heck, she's put up with my @$$ for 6yrs married and like 10 all together so like a few others have said "she's earnd the right" not to mention when I find something I want for my car and have the funds I don't have to worry about asking, she doesn't even raise a thought to it lol

    That's all that really needs to be said. There's different age/sexes that can be discriminated as being better/worse drivers, but either way it's a generalization and doesn't apply to all people.

    I haven't let a girlfriend drive my car and probably never will unless she's proven herself as being a very capable driver / responsible person and the relationship is fairly serious.

    I've only let one person outside my family drive my car other than mechanics. It's not that I don't trust them, it's that I'd rather not let it become a issue if they were to wreck it or whatever may become of the situation. At the same time I don't ask to drive other people's cars.

    My ex was afraid of my car, she only drove it once in a parking lot. My Mom drove it a few times and had to put a pillow on the seat to see over the dash lol. Very few people are allowed to drive it let alone ride in it.

    its our money going into the car, she drives it all the time on the street. she just asked yesterday if she could drive it on the track....i cant wait for the turbo rebuild, then ill teach her how to put one of those down the track. shes my wife...its a car....and i can fix just about anything. im not gonna have her in it for shake down passes, but once its lined out shes more than welcome to get in it and get a slice of turbocharger heaven(ill control the wastegate thank you). plus it will make getting better parts or replacing broken parts alot easier. ive got to hurry and get this thing done....i have a 4 year old already asking about a junior dragster.

    Parts gathering for the turbo build has commenced!!!
    junk i have - 76mm turbo, 60# msd injectors, block, heads, intake, tb, tunercats, 1 ajax 2 bar factory pcm tune, moates apu1!
    junk i need - camshaft, rods, +30 turbo pistons
