Howdy, I wouldn't be 'practising' on the road *nudge nudge wink wink*, however I very much would recommend doing one of the Motorsports Events Trackdays, the nearest being Keevil - Bristol side of Bath - was £79 for the last open pit lane, and it was a great place for me to learn all about my new toy, and RWD.

I wouldn't let that worry you. I"ve been driving RWD for twenty years and I'm still clueless.
