- a driver that doesn't own the car and is willing to abuse the hell out of the clutch and trans. Big burnout, high RPM clutch slipping launch, and gear slamming no lift shifts.
I think most people that own these cars aren't going to abuse the clutch and trans that hard, and will be more likely to see mid 12's.
