There are exceptions to EVERYTHING!!
There are many adults that are immature idiots (you know them, we race against them every weekend!)
There are many teenagers that are are mature, level headed and are great racers.
I do remember when I was 14-16.............Trust me, you wouldn't have wanted to be racing door to door with me........I wasn't mature enough to make some of the decisions (especially the life and death ones) that we make every second we are on the track.
Yes, there is the kid that's been running karts since he was 8. But just like our concerns with a student in his first school coming to the track with NO PREVIOUS TRACK EXPERIENCE (remember, you don't need any previous tracK experience to go to an SCCA school). You can't tell me a 14 YO will make as good as decisions as a 30 YO........
No offense to any teens!!
I had to edit, I accidentally clicked the "drinking beer" icon!! Hmmmmm, not appropriate!!
