Single cam? Get a lot of 185s on 40 psi. lol
I think this is kind of a myth that helps dudes with crappy cars sleep at night.
One advantage to learning with a really slow car, is that you're less likely to go fast enough to crash.
Although that is funny, I truly think that learning on a car with less power is extremely helpful. You learn a lot more technique, as opposed to having power to compensate for lack of technique.

My .02 for whoever gives a sh!t is that I've learned LOADS from driving my slow POS, gone fast enough to crash every time I've driven CFRC, PBIR, n Homestead, but it helped me with technique. Now power time!
If I didn't have to fly out Monday, id be there chillin with u guys

yeah got a pair of 205s and a set of 215s. 45psi be good yeup
Yeah you can crash, but it's a lot harder to do. Slow cars are good for learning because everything is in slow motion, you have a lot more time to react to every situation, and mistakes are a lot more forgiving.
On that note. I'll be there in my really slow miata!
