"Too much car for a kid" ?.....Well,probably not.
I learned to drive fast cars AND race cars very young.It's a good way to learn to handle the power early.
The folks that have trouble is usually the ones who go from a Civic to a Vette and have trouble with the adjustment.
It isn't all about speed......handling is VERY important too!!
