Congrats on getting past the 1200. Some will accuse me of being an old fuddy dud (I will admit to the old part) but I would not go from caution to YOT. Step it up in stages.

Why???
What do you think insurance is for???
Kick off the traction control and learn to slide that baby, learn about the car and what you need to do to stall the damn thing. I stall mine from time 2 time, just means I am still trying...

The Break-out period is when most traffic violations occur. Tunnel vision, fever and clammy palms are the symptoms of Break-out. When this happens SLOW THE HELL DOWN! Then youll be fine

At least find a hidden straight away, away from people and cops then wind her waaaaay up in 1st and dump the clutch to hear her chirp into 2nd. That will give you a wide grin on your face.
