The issue i see is that useless drivers teach new drivers their bad habits and the cycle continues. Spending 100 hours with someone who couldn't drive a greasy stick up a dogs arse (not to mention a car) is no better than spending 50 hours with that person.

I like the idea of a power to weight limit. It takes time to learn respect for horsepower and speed, and used incorrectly higher horsepower cars can become out of control faster and easier than a car of lesser power.

Training is a GOOD thing if you change their mindset from "I can drive well and i've been taught how to drive on the limit" to "I'm nowhere near as good as i thought i was, and i have a lot to learn.. BUT if i ever get into trouble in a car atleast i have been taught the best and most correct procedure to bring the vehicle back into control."

I think point to point speed checks are a great idea.. The more they are introduced the better. What gripes me is cops that sit at the bottom of a blind hill and wait for some poor bastard to go over the speed limit on over run and book them (etc).
