Science Abuse Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 While giving a test drive last night...on street tires and cold pavement. It would seem that the right pedal is improperly labeled the Accelerator. It should, in fact, be called the sideways button. This problem doesn't go away till about 30mph or 3rd gear, whichever comes first. Anyone else have one of these? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AudiOn19s Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 Snow tires on the M3 work in a similar fashion. At least it makes driving on the darn snows entertaining. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mojoe Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I took a friend for a ride in the RX7 last night. I eased through 2nd, once I got to 6500 rpm I floored it and sideways we went, down Henderson. Last night was pretty cold on the pavement. Pretty much everything will slide around.

RedRocket1647545505 Posted December 20, 2006 Report Share Posted December 20, 2006 I took the Z06 out a few weeks ago to try out the new exhaust upgrade. I decided to do a ricer flyby on a friend. I shifted from 6th to 3rd at 80mph, punched it, and the fucker started fishtailing all over the place. And it's damn near stock.... I heart Z06s.

Rally Pat Posted December 21, 2006 Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 Last winter, on about a 20 degree night, I was leaving 77nova's house and turning down one of his streets. The tires were rock hard, and I took a corner a bit too fast, and the ass end came out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Science Abuse Posted December 21, 2006 Author Report Share Posted December 21, 2006 What is this "cold" that you speak of??? It is the win, usually accompanied by snow, but Ohio sucks at the winter. I want some of that Denver blizzard action. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
