TBH, I've generally not minded people driving it. Many will confirm this at Crooked Billet meets. I personally feel that the best way for someone to get to know how the car drives is for them to try it themselves. However, with the current and very clear insurance restrictions placed on the car I guess that may have to change. The car is now capable of 135mph in 3rd gear, 165+mph in 4th and God alone knows what in 5th - so it needs to be respected and driven accordingly.
