Funny store is the time a girl asked me if she could ride the stick in the car lol. It was brand new and well she was a skanky girl so i declined this offer.

1) 2nd Gear

2) It throws you back in your seat!

3) One time I let the clutch out before the gear was engaged.... I grinded.... *embarassing*

first is the best because its all slip and no grip (mostly for show) then you walk on them in second. I wish it was a six speed though.

I love first gear. When i can actually hook it on a warm day it reminds me of how my vette feels in third.

2ND gear pull! 2nd @ 60MPH kicks ass. If you cant beat something on the fly in 2nd @ 60 in my eyes you never will. The car is like you just kicked it in the ass hard core. Thing pulls like a bitch and then you power shift 3rd...nothing gets the adrenalen going more than that!

End of story!

So.... how many times a day do you get up to 140 mph?

2nd gear is my favorite. Car pulls very hard

1st sucks! Cant wait to tune the car and drop the boost levels in 1st.
