SiCaln Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 no driver full stop. just because u have a piece of plastic doesnt mean u can actually drive, just that u can handle a car for 42mins under the eyes of an instructor - no mean feat, but far from having years of experience behind the wheel Quote
montanajr Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 I've only been driving two years so can't really talk, but yeah you are right. Passing your test just means it legal for you to be on the roads, doesn't mean your good enough to be! lol. Quote

Callan Posted May 20, 2008 Author Posted May 20, 2008 well it actually wasnt hard,i phsyked my self up to do well and concetrated,as i always do when driving,i was talking and being normal as per usual with the instructor,he was ace,he doe's hgv and bike testing also....just went out and swapped my tyres around on my Dt....fell over and did a HUGE tarmac face plant:(at least i can try to get insurance for my gt on weekends still and still do sprinting with confidence,any one whos worried dont be affraid to let it out how you feel lol...i was shitting it earlier until i figured actually how easy it is,because im heavy footed in practise i kept locking up the abs:s but i got round it in the end and was mint,on my test i didnt actually do an emergency stop i just did reversing around a corner and turbo in the road what i did perfectly imo...just cant wait to get some boost in my big comfy blue sofa Quote
briggers Posted May 20, 2008 Posted May 20, 2008 well done mate wish i had a gt for my first car. but i think i would be banned if i did as when i passed i was slightly reckless but thats because i was nieve Quote
