I need to be careful
I was driving the other day on our local highway, speed limit is 60 and this bug in front of me is doing 55. So I sorta punch it, not wot, hit about 5k rpm, shift to 6th, pass a few cars in the process. Next thing I notice I'm doing 100. I usually shut down at 90 or lower in my last car but this EVO is so smooth I think I could have kept going before I realized I was going too fast.

You need to sell you evo......................before you kill youself. Seriously if you can't monitor your speed when the gauge is right there in fron of you, Id wonder how you use your dik

No street racing! Just kidding, yes it is a fast car and very stable, aside from the loud exhaust you wont know your going that fast.
