Ryan and Andrew touch on the shoot at Michigan State University, how to get into cars/performance driving at any age as a hobbyist, and starter cars that have automatic transmissions. Although most people might say "I like cars", it can be daunting to dive deeper into the world of automotive performance. Picking a place to start, alone, can be a difficult decision. Sim racing often ignites the spark for many at a young age, but there's nothing like owning a car in the real world to get you started on your journey.  Everyone has to start at the same place. The longer you wait, the longer it will take to get up to speed with everyone else. Simply owning a car will increase your motivation to learn, which will lead to a deeper understanding of many topics and comes with the added benefit of knowledge that transfers to the future cars you'll own down the road.
