I'm 18 and although I have a loan on my F6, I laid down a significant portion of the purchase price when I brought it. I also have just about enough cash to pay it out if need be...I agree though, play safe people Take my hat off to ya mateYour a lucky farker Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/48986-age-of-fpv-owners/page/13/#findComment-838633 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Guests Posted 09/03/09 10:40 AM Share Posted 09/03/09 10:40 AM Now go and learn to drive them legally. Think you can all drive? news just in, you cant as well as you think. People barely off their Ps are not ready for 300rwkw.SimplePlay safe people Next questionHow the fark can a 20yo afford a new F6Bit of a generalisation there guys... I know a few 18, 19, 20y/o guys/gals with hipo cars & they drive just as sensibly as the next person. They go to the track & do the right thing.Bandwagon spec like Today Tonight with the whole HOON fiasco.

gregor Member 459 Member For: 16y 10m 14d Posted 10/03/09 06:21 AM Share Posted 10/03/09 06:21 AM Buf-Phoon: I agree that a lot of young guys need to learn to take it easy and realise theres a time and a place for driving hard and they generally arent as good as they think.BUTBeing older doesnt prepare you for more power, when I picked my T up I was a lot more comfortable with the power and acceleration (im 23 and have had a turbo pulsar for a few years) than my old man in his 50s was. Actually being older doesnt necessarily make you a better road user either but lets not get into that.

Nor are some of the oldies experienced with new found power either Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/48986-age-of-fpv-owners/page/13/#findComment-839116 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Guests Posted 10/03/09 07:05 AM Share Posted 10/03/09 07:05 AM I don't think 90% of the population (both young & old) are necessarily 'ready' for 330rwkw if they haven't progressively built up to it. It's a learning curve that everyone needs to follow, regardless of age/gender/religious beliefs/colour of underwear imo Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/48986-age-of-fpv-owners/page/13/#findComment-839121 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Started out with just an edit then few months down the track got injectors and so on, kept increasing the power until it got to the stage it is now.
