[s-cars] NAC, but turbo content

[Pram]

With regard to inexperienced drivers and high performance cars,  this is
an actual event:

This happened to a family friend of my friend.  Just before christmas
last year (2002) an 18th year old freshman student was killed in an auto
accident  on the freeway of Southern California.  What make the story
interesting is that the student was driving a brand new Ferrari 360.  He
just got the car from his mother as somekind of a present.   Apparently
he asked his father for the Ferrari and his father told him "No".  His
mother relented and bought him the Ferrari.

There are a lot of this very high performance cars with  very high limit
of handling capability which can be bad in the hand of inexperienced
drivers since the loss of control happen in much higher speed than
normal car.
