I prefer 2nd better. I like when I am at about 40 mph drop it in second to about 55 and then stroll into third.

I'm more of a second gear guy because I don't play around up at the top of 3rd too often but I do enjoy the time I've spent there.

5th gear going 20mph in an SS/SC is still faster than 1st gear in my Civic...

I love 2nd AND 3rd. @nd is sweet to drop to when you are going about 45 and nail it to 70 then switch to 3rd and haul ass to 115 :-) I pull on my buddiest Sti in 3rd he hates it.

He used to have a 300hp WRX, and he went and bought an Sti, he's tired of getting beat, but I still beat it, and he can't afford more mods right now.

3erd gear is the only gear I pass fast cars in, imagine that. 3erd always gets me past those v-8s =D

I used to love 2nd gear, but now that I have stage 2, 3rd gear is my favorite!

Cruisin' down the hiway at about 65 when out of the corner of your eye you see someone tryin' to do a flyby, drop to 3rd and all they can say is
