Correct. I know just how hard to come down without spinning the tires. That takes seat time and practice.

No question about it. A car responds the way you dive it. If you baby the thing for 5 years and then decide to stomp the pedal, the car will probably try and kill over. At the same time, if you stomp the thing everywhere you go, it is always ready to respond.

If you don't drive the thing at all, the seals will dry rot and the car will be useless for anything other than staring at. It's like anything, use it or loose it. I use mine for what it was made for on plenty of occasions.


Notice how many cars with more horsepower than I have that I passed. The first yellow one and the white one were both Z06's. Then of course there were the C6's. Mine is a totally stock A4 Coupe.
