In my case, though, I am listening and learning and progressing. I don't want to hurt my instructor, my DD, or anyone esle out there.
I want to push it a little and learn the limits. I am far from out driving the car.

This is a totally unfair generalization. I think these days a lot of the new students at DE's get into it much like I did. They go out and buy a hot car because they can, want to, and probably are a bit mid-life crazy. After owning for a while, they decide they should take it to the track. They start out in a fast car not because they assume they are good enough to drive it, but because they wanted to have a fast car to drive around in, and later take it to the track. It's really unfair to peg all the noobs with hot cars into one category.
