That's why you go 90, you're not close to them for as long.

No higher than the limit... I'm not going to lose my licence... xD

It's quite slow. 3000 revs in top gear = 70mph. Eh, it's no sports car.

Aqualis

I am jealous. You have a tachometer.

If I get another ticket, I will lose my license.  :-(

Haha i have a little standard that has no tachometer. You go by the sound of the engine. I love it.

It also gets better gas mileage than most hybrids.

I also have a standard without a tach. I go by sound and speed. I know where the rev limiter cuts off in each of the first three gears. After that I just hit the speed limiter.

I have an automatic
have an issue getting from neutral to first with a stick shift.  other than that I'm fine with them

assuming the little yellow car is an auto..  very few people drive stick now

Very few automatics over here. It is manual (stick shift).

Yeah, it has a tachometer. xD

I can only get two tickets (6 points) then I lose my licence. (Goes up to 12 points on licence after two years of passing test.) Hence why I'm careful. Plus, it is quite amusing annoying sports cars by sticking to 30 in a 30 limit. xD

Aqualis

What's even more amusing is blowing by sports cars at 30 over the limit in a pickup. Or, even better, out running sports cars on twisty roads.

Of course, that one BMW managed to keep up with me around the twisty bits, and that mustang that I passed at 90 followed me for five miles before passing me again at 120.

Still, greatly amusing. :evil:

in that case Aqualis its not how fast your car can go
its how insane the driver is

I once sorta raced a bmw coupe with my ranger.  It cut me off on the onramp, I tailgated, it breaked suddenly, I nearly hit it, it took off once the onramp dumped into the highway, I followed, it left me in the dust
my speedometer only goes to 85...  I got the needle to touch the bottom of the enclosure, so I'd guesstimate ~95-100...  no idea what the little beemer got to
btw, this was at 11:30pm on a sunday night, noone out on the road.  I'm not quite brave / stupid enough to try that in traffic

That reminds me of the time I caught some air entering the department of health parking lot to turn around. (It's not my fault their entrance is ramp shaped.)
