4th gear cruisin...

Postby marco_1978_spyder » Wed May 13, 2009 8:39 pm

I rounded a regular corner today, and I never had to take the car out of gear (4th!)

Granted I accelerated nice and gently, but the motor had no troubles. I can go all the way down to a slow 25mph crawl at 1,000 rpm. No Lugging whatsoever. Then ease back up to speed, without the motor showing any signs of working too hard.

Gotta love a V8 in an H.
