jeffmeden Posted December 10, 2007 Report Share Posted December 10, 2007 If you don't know what track that is you fail. I only watched about 20 seconds of it, but is it Laguna Seca? I like how the camera whites out as the car approaches the speed of light. That's some serious power!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTQ B4U Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I would/will. I love the paddle shift. Hell, there are plenty of instances where autos are faster than manuals and besides, I can't fucking multi-task if I'm shifting gears. there was alot of talk about an auto trans but who in there right mind would ever buy an auto vette?

Dr. Pomade Posted December 11, 2007 Report Share Posted December 11, 2007 I can't fucking multi-task if I'm shifting gears. No worries. Listen, it's a little known fact, but, if you just leave it in first and continue to floor it, eventually the tach will come back around - doing a complete 360 degrees - and you'll be back at 1000rpms in no time. Just continue to repeat that process and amaze friends and families alike with your non-shifting prowess. Some "experts" say doing that "hurts" the engine. Those people are generally regarded as sissies. Ignore them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
