but to the op, you should look into "performance driving" schools, that might help, and what i know some of my friends do is go backroad driving, i.e- pungo runs, great practice for some real time twisty roads, but do it later at night with less chance of pedestrians
LOL....finally, someone else that does that other than me

i only see other cars doing that once in a blue moon....

Really? You got your license that early? Thats awesome, I wish I had gotten into autocrossing that early...

Pushing anything over 80% on most backroads is pretty dangerous in case a deer pops out or theres a random road hazard, up here anyway. I would recommend an autocross just so you know what 100% feels like. On backroads after you've reached a point in driving skill, the faster your car becomes with mods the higher the risk you take every time you run. I wouldn't worry about a school, have an instructor ride with you at your first event and you should be good.

oggy I think by the time VMSC season gets into full swing you should be good to go, the hardest thing is remembering where the course goes when you're out there

any "pointers" we might give your right now really won't mean much till you've been driving for a little bit and driven an autocorss yourself
it's quite different experience when it's you out there by yourself and not a ride along with yer dad

Hey have you been the one taking the pics for VMSC?

yeah when i used to go out with another member on the backrounds, it was shit we had driven numerous times, and knew the roads very well, only had one close encounter with deer, luckily we were slowing down, saw the one deer, stopped, and then 4 just bum rushed the civic and split across the street

yeah we rarely ever got over 100 on the roads, most of the turns were at 45-60
