The handling or rear and mid-engine cars doesn't lend itself to controllable driving without experience. I believe Dunn crashed a GT3RS, a race car for the streets like the CGT. These are fast cars, fast cars lend themselves to extra-legal speeds easily. The Nissan's AWD and not made of plastic while also being front-engined...a bad crash in any of those cars will kill a man. Bad meaning of course an unlucky hit to the greenhouse, fluid leak, etc.
