Take it easy on your car.

Unless you've got loads of $$$$. But then you'd probably not own a tC if you had alot of $$$$. lol

Thats right, L 7000rpm, then 2 7000rpm, I just smoked my friend's WRX by doing this, coz i think the vvti kicks in everytime.

and I do it clutchless

lol niceee. im glad yur happy. Try not to race too much. and hey 7000rpm? how the hell. Our reds are at 6200, and i thought we have a rev limiter. Atleast wenever i do choose to race a buddy of mine i try to shift a lil above 5k. Though sumtimes i get lost in adrenaline and i dont look but 7k rpm? i dont wanna try it but can we reallly go to 7k?

I rev it like no tomorrow, also I love to put it on neutral, rev it to 6000rpms and put it on drive, makes me leave the supras hanging on the start line.

i'm thinking the same thing! unless you have say, 2K i suggest you stop "powershifting" your auto. and revving isnt always cool. I'm gonna guess hes a ricer then! youre better off in park than in neutral. im gonna go downstairs and check the redline for the auto tC. poor tC!
