Had one of those (Modified Escort 1300 GT) in my very early twenties - only 110HP. Hit the mountain head on driving to work one morning Went A over K once then rolled back down to land on roof facing the way I had come from. Roof V'd down to dashboard. Fortunately had full harness seat belts so no injuries for passenger and me (Thanks Britax).

Learnt a lot of lessons from that experience that have kept me safe behind the wheel.

Aah the over confidence of youth!!!!!! Don't think you can handle anything fancy until you have safely and successfully tried it.
