First of all, I guess my previous post was locked. I didn't realize that talking about a stoplight shootout under the speed limit on an empty road was considered "street racing". I wouldn't have posted otherwise and I apologize for breaking the forum rules. Won't happen again.
But, I would like to repeat the second part of my message about how great it is to be able to drive by ear for shift points. I find it very difficult in the summer with the air on full blast and the radio going...I have to watch the tach all the time. I like to have the windows down and be able to shift by ear.
