[QUOTE="jbp99cobra, post: 10413073, member: 23462"] With the discussion about Skeen, I thought it would be appropriate to post up one of his posts from yesterday on another forum regarding buying a slow car for learning: [B][I]"It's because driving a slow car makes mistakes more obvious. If you don't have horsepower to get out of the corners, you will realize very quickly when you slow down more than necessary. There is a lot to be learned in any car, but if you are fast in a slow car, you can be fast in a fast car. It doesn't always work the other way around. Edit to add: driving a fast car slow doesn't offer the same results. However, you can frequently get the same effect if you leave a high-power car in a high gear. Driving your Corvette around in 4th will certainly reduce the power advantage you have, which in turn will make it more important to keep your minimum speed up through each corner."[/I][/B][I] Mike Skeen[/I] [/QUOTE]
