Ja I felt KAK after I did it, felt like I hurt the car. Although even when I was off the clock I tapped off and floored it agian the torque is VERY strong even at that speed.

screw that man...

its just a car - it was built to be fast... so gun it. who gives a crap, unless you get caught???

actually - i've got no issues with gunning it, just do it on a track rather than a public road!

otherwise - give it horns. we all bought these cars because they are quicker than normal, and sporty, and RWD, and can drift lekka, and have a drag coefficient of 0.33 or something...

so just do it man! worry later!

VC that is not always the case. My problem is, my car is so strong I really think I am at the limits of the motor now. The stock pistons are only good for "some say 200RwKw" which is where I am now and I would hate to blow the motor for 2mins of fun. Once I get my rebuild done with the proper parts then I will have no problem gunning it at will but right now I am too scared.
