    personal preferrence then. i still see no reason to let a son with a clean driving record and the ability to drive mildly quick cars not take a c5 vette out for a night.

    unless he can't drive worth a sh!t, but this doesn't look like the case

    If you agree, why would you still try to give input on something you admittedly know nothing about? Later, QD.

    It's not what does or does not happen but what *could* happen in the eyes of a parent man. Honestly it's not even about the car, maybe just the rare oppurtunity that leads to an even more rare chance of any kind of incident and as a parent you don't just give those chances away.

    That is understandable, hell, I had the opportunity to take a Maseratti Quattroporte but my father said he rather have me take a Limo. He said he didn't want me to drink and drive since I was allowed to drink that night.

    agreed

    Edit: Lol at my post after QD's. The way I see it QD, the OP asked for opinions without giving hardly any info. So he should be alright with opinions from people that don't know the entire situation.

    It's not the entire situation that I'm looking at. He's asking this to people of whom well over half aren't even parents. Of course all the younger folks are going to agree with him and his stance because they are (sort of) in the same boat. There is a whole different side when you're the parent yourself.

    As I stated above, you wouldn't understand because you're not a parent. Later, QD.
