Default Can you do it?

I am going to play a little game of resist the 6000rpm. I encourage all of you to play as well. I am going to fill up my fuel tomorrow before class and will not hit vtec until my gas light goes on alerting me to fill up fuel and that will be the mark of my/our accomplishment, if it occurs. This should be a good test of dicipline too. Not to mention our mpg will be at an all time high.

just so I do not forget later on in the week:


Good Luck and happy driving!

I want to try it. It's hard resisting shifting at 9k. I need to learn dicipline and as an added perk, gas mileage shouldnt be too shabby. I do know that after this tank is done with, I'm going to be all over the place.

You realize that by not engaging into vtec before your gas light comes on will damge your motor.

I am pretty sure that I have done at least 250 miles with no VTEC, but I drive like a grandma... its really sad.
