you shoulda seen me in the snow with my stock tires then... 240tq FTW!

With the TCS off, I can incinerate the rear tires in 1st and 2nd, and sometimes spin them going into 3rd on a straight, and nominal conditions...I just choose not to launch the car hard enough to do that...

I find that the 400 series highways in the GTA is pretty well the only area I can drive 130-140km's/hr and not worry about the 5-O, as everyone else is doing 130+ 90% of the time anyways. It's only sometimes I'll run about 160-170 on the 407 ETR near it's west end, just to blow some of the gunk out of the engine, and I don't do this for any longer than a couple minutes at a time, when I do go that fast. Oh yeah, when I DO go that fast (and that's still not got the 4.6 breathing hard yet either), its when I've got snobs in Lex's, BMW's, or Dodge Chargers or other cars wanting to go that speed, and I just keep pace with them and whatnot.

I don't do anything rash like that person with the Black ZX5 you guys mentioned does...

spinning tires when accelerating..

thats cool on the street i guess.. makes passengers go oh sh1t and makes you feel like the car is fast/powerful.. personally i like it better when i hit the gas and my car moves forward instead of wasting time spinning wheels.. :)

spinning tires are for rookies it takes a real driver to get the power to the floor
