I got my 1st S when i was 18. Im 19 now and im on my 2nd S. Its all about maturity and common sense. Ive spun out being stupid the 1st day i bought my 1st S. After that ask me when i spun out again. Now im on my second S (and no i didnt crash the 1st one) i realize that if your not careful the car will suprize you and have you driving ass backwards. Dont drive beyond your limits and you will be fine, the S2000's limits are much father than the average driver. Just keep that in mind.

Believe me i've seen many older people than me do stupid stuff to get themselves into accidents....I believe on the maturity factor and knowing when you need to go fast and when not to....2 weeks ago I saw a 53 year old guy goin around 55 mph around a turn in his mustang and deck a tree......He had to be care flighted.......I just don't like how you guys think once you hit 25-30 that you won't be a stupid driver anymore....it could happen to anyone....and yes i do love my ...... too

I guarantee it cost more than a car or truck and is far more a pain in the ass to have fixed. Suppose someone had been in the yard, or just on the other side of that wall? I'm surprised no one has mentioned this yet.
These are factors you need to consider every time you want to prove something.

As I sit here typing this, I can't help but imagine how unbelievably angry I would be if some street racing kid were to plow through the wall of my home.

Sorry, like I said, glad your ok, and you seem to have learned from this so it wasn't all bad.
Wait until the OP gets sued by the homeowners.
