Ok, so my aunt and uncle just gave me yesterday, tickets to do the Richard Petty driving experience in Las Vegas (it's where you get to drive a Nascar for a certain amount of laps). http://www.1800bepetty.com/Experience/Rookie.aspx
They got it for me for my birthday but they didn't give it to me on my actual birthday, Oct. 19, because they wanted to see how my grades turned out. So at first I was like HELLA YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (then proceed the do a 16 year old, immature rant for next 4 hours). Then after reading some thread about what a 16 year old should have for a first car, I realized oh Sh**! I can barley drive a manual how the hell am I going to drive a 600+ hp best. Then I realized holy f**K! I'm just 16 and really I have no driving experience while the people doing this are 30-65 year old men who have lots of experience. I don't want to hurt my aunt and uncle's feelings but to tell you the truth, I'm scared of not being able to control such a beast and crashing. I really think I should wait but I don't know what to do. I mean do y'all think? Should I just tell them that I'm scared of doing this right now or what?
