It's harder on a performance car if you drive it like an old lady.

I don't need high speed to enjoy...I like the pull up to 50 or 60 mph. When I have gone to the track it's nice to let it go without the police to worry about.

On the road you're insured on the track you're SOL.

My last time at the track. ..a few weeks back...there were a ton of them. Some of those cars run hard and have my respect....but ya those cars that don't look like they are fit for the road not to mention the track are bad news.

Hi,
I dont beat the car up, but I drive pretty quick most of my commute is wide open so I get going from 0-90+ pretty quick. I don't get the rpms up that high though about 3-3.5. It is fun to drive and I figure when you got some road to use then you might as well. I have had it for about a month and I was feeling bad everytime I drove it hard at first, but then just did it the same the next time I drove. I figure most people know how to take care of their things right without hurting them. Kevin |

I did a 70 mph burn out on the freeway today. I like the challenge, doing it at slower speed is just too easy.

But I agree, I have days when I just want to relax, too lazy to even push in the clutch some times on upshifts...

I rarely see double digits; I'm always between 8 and 9 mpg. City driving for the most part, but I did go though the first set of rear tires after 10k miles.
One of my rear Boston Acoustic sub-woofers blew this year. I was impressed it made it almost a full 6 years worth of my music on 45. Time to upgrade.

otherwise I drive normally. After a great workout or something, and if a good song comes on, i'll gun it to let loose those butterflies in my stomach. If i'm on the highway and feel like hearing some real music, I'll downshift and let her loose. Greatest feeling in the world. |
