The biggest issue I found with the Cossie was the speed diffrential with other car users under acceleration, I seemed to whip up behind them and struggle to slow the acceleration to a matching speed.
I had this issue with my Westie, thank god for decent brakes. You are going exponentially faster than normal cars and it takes a while for the old noggin to compute.

Having to suddenly pull in overtaking a column of cars can be interesting.

Whereabouts are you based?
