What is this VTEC you speak of? I would never want to intentionally run my car to redline under an overpass. That sounds down right irresponsible.

I would prefer the whole world doesn't view that video because I only have a certain amount of bandwidth allocated each month, so check your PM

heh, I know the feeling.

My car gives off a Zonda like howl in some streets and tunnels when I keep it at around 2500krpm on 2nd or 3rd.

Awesome *thumbs up*

There's only one very short tunnel in my town. A couple weeks ago my best friend lost her grandfather, so to cheer her up we VTEC'd through the tunnel. That brought a huge to her face!

Actually I can think of one really good one in Ft. Lauderdale on US1 where it goes underneath the New River. I would guess its at least an 1/8th of a mile in length if not longer. Unfortunately I don't live there anymore and when I did I didn't have any VTEC equipped vehicles

Here in Jacksonville we're limited to overpasses and such. There is one spot here near my house that has been my little "Roar Zone" since I got my RSX (and now S2000). Its after an off-ramp coming off of an Expressway....long straight ramp followed by a nice left turn(with no stop sign or light) going underneath a double overpass.....makes me grin like an idiot everytime!
