Nicole learnt in one of my RWD cossie's with 400bhp and a paddle clutch.

An EVO will be a load easier than that i reckon.

I've always thought that if I ever have to teach someone to drive I'll take them to an empty car park and get them hooning about the place to learn the basics.

I remember my first lesson started on a busy road - scary was not the word
