Well, um.... you don't. You follow it as if you were spying, just to
make sure nothing happens to it. :)
Actually, I don't know, my son is only eight right now, with Autism. He
may never be able to drive, we don't know yet. I have hopes he will.
But I -have- let others drive it. Here is a good example:

I actually in this case, let someone else -race- my Pantera, earlier
this year at Autocross. He made eight runs that day, same as me. He
actually drove it better than I did.
