    lol, ill do it if im bored after cruising for a long time at the speed limit, if theres not many cars around and if there are no in the area.

    And even then, in my car its enough power for me to only open it to maybe 70 - 80% throttle to satisfy the feeling.

    I do it on on-ramps from time to time if no one is in front of me. Generally I don't need to go to the floor to get the acceleration that satisfies me though.

    God, I rag the shit out of my cars, always have. I have a very heavy foot, no matter what i'm driving. But I have learned to be more conservative about it.

    Damn...in that Camaro, I bet you could probably watch the fuel gauge needle go down if you strayed past 3500 RPM.

    Not very much since I've been driving the tahoe. In my 240, usually just on on ramps, since every on-ramp in Athens is going uphill, and my nissan is slow. Torquey, but slow.

    Fuck stance. Stance is for kids in skinny jeans with Justin Beiber haircuts. You don't need stance when you got swagger.

    I drive my car like I stole it almost everyday...but I almost never go over the speed limit.

    274K miles and still romp on it like it's new...it's a car, drive it. When it breaks, fix it.

    My brother is very conservative with his car...sometimes, it rubs off on me.

    the N/A daily driver, I floor it all the time. Its bone stock and slow so you almost have to to get the car to move.

    The turbo car, rarely gets floored on the street. Maybe an on-ramp or far in the country, because flooring that too long can result in tickets.
    My car is factory....



    Every single performance part and or modification it has was made in a factory somewhere.

    I NEVER WOT in my car. NEVER.

    I can't remember the last time I did, honestly

    I don't take my car over 2500rpm when I do drive it Except when I'm on the HWY

    Forget traffic and I'm not even sure VTEC still works in my car

    Every time a light goes from red to green Then I look in the rear view and think that slow POS didn't have a chance.

    Pretty much the same here. The Miata is slow, and the Jetta is really slow.

    as long as you use quality gas, oil, and spark plugs, you shouldn't have to worry much about carbon build up.
