This is what I'm talking about, what your kid did is as healthy as it gets and it's something to be proud of.so weird so I just get a call from my son now to ask if he can take his friends around the block with the Audi ...they want to hear the turbo and shit and im like no ..immediately ... but then im like damn when I was his age I would of just taken the car etc. after a bit of a talk and reminder I let him take it up the road in the area but just for the sounds no speed.
My son is 13 now and we're at a point where he starts the car in the mornings for school and pulls it out the garage into the driveway, I park the entire 2 bays at an angle so it's not just a simple back out either. Usually on Saturdays but every weekend I also let him drive it around the neighbourhood while riding shotgun. It makes him aware of where he lives, gets him started on driving but most importantly the more you let them do these kind of things in a healthy setting the more "normal" it gets by the time they set off without you. Our neighbour asked him one morning to "rev it" and he politely responded by saying the oil is not up to temp yet, giving the ballie a small tutorial on the MHD dials.
