Let me clarify....” One of the main reasons I have not (and will not ) track my car” Tracking a Cobra is WAY ABOVE the driving skill I have, not to mention the concentration needed to drive like that. wish I could!!!

Almost anyone can learn to drive at 7/10 or 8/10.

It's that last little bit that separates the men from the boys.

In the last 10 years I have performance driving school instructed many guys just like you. It is very rare when one of them says "this is too fast for me"
A lot of the guys I have instructed as first timers have gone on to advanced schools and have become pretty good vintage racers.
Like I said it's not for everybody but sometimes all it takes is one lesson and you are hooked.

But like anything in life, many lessons to really master it.

Glad the driver is okay. Reaffirms my own intuitions on the subject and that my personal choice for a track car will have a full cage and a roof over my head.
