    IMO - If your ride doesn't like being 'pinned to the mat' it'll tell you. Turn the music off, roll the windows up and listen... I like my fingertips lightly on the shifter for additional 'feel.' It'll be pretty evident how happy she is.

    Easier than reading than my wife... she's always 'FINE' !?! :confused:

    Downshift and run once a day! Its good for the soul!
