Once again, it's time for the FNGT!

If you don't know how this works, . That link will take you to another site to give you some additional information and tell you about some of our off-site features. That's also the site where we will host the weekly guitar threads, should Poal go down.

NOTE: That site is by invitation only. If you want an invite, and you're a regular participant, then just ask Crazy, or myself.

If you do know what's going on, you probably don't need to click that link - but you may want to, to make sure you know of the other features, such as the archive or a separate forum that's invite only.

Remember, we are guests here on Poal. Let's act like it. If you're interested in supporting Poal, then .

I suppose you don't quite have the same control with an automatic in there.

And you're welcome

Definitely not. Though, to be fair, you'd still have to be careful about not pinging off the rev limited in a manual - assuming the manual also has that built in. It's some GM transmission, so it's probably built into both.

So many cars come with rev limiters. My M6 has no such thing. If I want to blow the engine, I can drop it into 1st gear and wrap the needle over the red line and blow the fucking engine.

It'll happily let me blow the engine and buy a new one.

I'd rather not do that - but I can if I want to!

I have to imagine that most cars these days would have a rev limiter

it's a rarity to find one that doesn't. It's probably a bad idea to not have a rev limiter.

When you're in the upper realms of RPMs and gaining more RPMs is just a light throttle flick away, you probably want to help reduce the problems introduced by the human element.
