Anyway :hello: all happy hump day. Hope everyones wed. Are drama free and go by quickly. (And hopefully onzedge can go home soon :tup: )

My normal shifting is probably closer to 3500 RPMs. I'm just happy I can save my clutch some wear now that I feel comfortable doing a 1st to 6th shift :rofl2:

I'm a guy... we don't read owner's manuals :icon17:

The owner's manual only contains stuff we know already and stupid garbage we don't need to know (i.e. shift recommendations) :tup: It's the service manual that we're interested in since it tells how to put it back together after we take it apart :bowrofl:

However, I can attest to JAR's response... what's an owners manual? :icon17:

Wish I had some kicka$$ places to perch where I could generate revenue like that. :) Meh, he can't be taking much in...I'd have to justify the amount of time vs. teh amount of money taken in.. I think I might just rather be :driving:

Just ask any mechanic in the Formula 1 paddock. Those guys are awesome at torquing wheel nuts!

Btw, Team Red Bull can kiss my :icon23:! :icon17: I'm still a Ferrari fanboy in F1 since the days of Schumi and Hakkinen racing.

I haven't watched a whole lot since he retired the first time though.

I've tried picking it up again, but haven't paid much attention to the schedule/times of the races to be consistent.
