Yeah well, as the topic sugests, This is how big i was when i started driving the little mini buggy beside me with the bar-tread tyres on the front, as you can see i`m barely any taller than my (funny enough) "moulton" push bike *smiley*



i was about 6 or 7 years old, skinny as a rake, & needed 2 pillows behind me & one under my bum to do it

hee hee,,, Ahhhh, those were the days *smiley*

soo,,,, how old were you guys/gals when you started driving & when was your vewy vewy first drive in a brick? & have you any pics???

I never drove a car till I was 18!

Not even a go-kart.

I first drove when I was 10 around the field. My dad restored a davrian over many years and I really wanted to drive it before he sold it. so we took it out in the field and I drove it around. I do remember stalling a few times though.

I'd like to know what happened to that actually.

Though I did drive the ride on mover from when I could reach the pedels. That then got pikeyed, and the new one had a weight sensitive seat that I was not heavy enough for*frown*

I bet my first wank came quicker than your first mini turbo


These new modern turbos with their quick spool up time, would make the competition harder.

I was 16, driving a Mighty Mini around the paddock at races. Those were the good old days.

First mini turbo to get in the 12's & site perv

I used to sit on my dads knee and steer before i was at school

I think my first proper driving experience was at 12 in a 405 my dad got from work, and my first gear change was a few weeks later in a sprinter van

Then it all became fun with various cars in my friends field, i think i finally got to drive a mini when i was 16

We also used to have a few bikes from the age of 10, I could be found riding up and down the road doing top speed runs testing my home tuning. The helmet only used to go on when i was on my dads ducati..... *oh well*
