I disagree with almost everyone here.
I would do everything I can to help your son to not loose his liscense in court. Having you on his side to help him will let him know you care for him and are there to back him up.
Of course you need to punish him and let him know what he did was wrong and you arent happy about it. But dont you think he already knows that? Hes going to have to deal with the consequnces of his actions, and Im sure hes learned his lesson.
My best advice is to drive the car around with him and make sure he is able to handle it.
Sure he directly disobeyed you, but we all have to learn from our own experience. How many times did you do what your parents told you not to do? Atleast he wasnt out selling drugs or stealing.
It definatly was poor judgement on his part, but with having a fast car this is something he will have to deal with, and learn to keep it to the track only.
I think being firm, but leanient will get the most respect from you son and keep him on the right track.
DONT LET HIM LOOSE HIS LISCENSE OR HIS CAR.
