Two things...
First off, I want a WRX
Secondly, he should fight the wreckless driving charge. There was a Judge in New York State I think it was who threw out a wreckless driving charge against a guy on a crotch rocket for doing over 100 mph. The Judge said fast doesn't necessarily mean wreckless. Cool Judge, huh?

If it was Jeff Gordon driving at night w/ no passengers and no other cars, OK, I wouldn't give reckless driving because he'* a trained professional. But a 16 yr-old-kid is (most likely) not a trained professional therefore he should receive reckless driving.
And who are those parents to be surprised that their 16 yr-old son speeds in a WRX?!?
