What a BLAST! I cruised out tonight down some lonely 2-lane road, found a nice patch of level pavement and rolled the windows down, turned off the stereo and sat there for a moment listening to the frogs and crickets. I cracked the throttle to 3K and dumped the clutch. Immediately I was greeted by the roar of the motor and spinning tires... and too soon the motor bouncing off the rev-limiter. I grabbed 2nd, got slightly out of shape while still burning rubber, and hooked up for good. 3rd gear came very fast, and with a nice chirp. In no time I was up to 100. I cruised back and looked at my marks (god, I sound like a teenager all over again!) and was quite impressed to see a two nice fat streaks-a 20footer in first, and a 15 footer 2nd gear.
These cars are unbelievable. I drove a new GT 5speed and it pales in comparison.
