Damn, Steve, awesome story and the reaction video/photo is priceless. Amazing.
I think with your background of HPDE/autocross and instilling that in him, your son will end up wanting to do those events too and understand what not to do on the street (most of the time, at least). My Ford Escape was a V6 and would scoot pretty good for a small SUV with a high school kid driving it, but I never managed to do anything dumb with it or dad's 255 HP (!!) Infiniti.
