heh, people on P's in a mps... it's a slightly scary thought to be honest...
i would suggest you drive a 6-cylinder RWD car before trying a MPS (ie basic falcon/commodore) give you an idea of the power in a safer package...
the last P-plater we had in a MPS crashed (fortunately survived) so it's a bit of a touchy subject
guessing you're in the ACT or WA?
