Lightbulb Thanks for the idea.
Less while I do like the idea of helping the kids. I have to think about their safety as well. This is a car that unless an experienced driver who understands the amount of horsepower that a car like this has especially with a BIG BLOCK 427 V-8 under the hood. I have to be cautious and think about the driver safety as well. I do not consider myself an experienced driver for this amount of horse power and so I can't say to what levels of experience you have amongst the kids in your class. Plus I have to wonder who would truly benefit from the vehicle? I do like the idea presented but some would call this being responsible thinking on my part, I just call it being selfish as well. At this time some months later since owning the car I have grown to love it so thanks.
Jesse
