[B]Depends on how you want to do it - straight line, you'd need to sidestep the clutch at a high enough RPM, thereby running the risk of doing some damage to the drivetrain or causing premature clutch wear.

the stock tires (s02) are pretty sticky and somewhat soft. this combo makes a pretty high breaking point (they dont unstick very easily). when they break loose, the tires really break loose! so, as the other posts indicate, lots of tire wear or loss of control are possible results. fun to do, but not as easy as with other tires, imo.

I have had enough, everybody is making it sound like this car is touchy, and difficult. This car has excellent balance, I have experiance road racing with many types of cars, and this is by far one of the easiest cars to drive. So I would hate to see some of you behind the wheels of a Viper. Where when you smash the gas at 60 you will spin.
