Lots of wrecked Z's...

But as i said, we can adapt.

i just recently reflashed my 335, and now its probably got about 100 more lbft of torque at the wheels at 2500 rpm. So if i press the gas the same way i used to to gingerly get off the line, it's going to put down a lot more power. so i just give it less throttle. i have no problems driving it just as slow as i used to even with the added power. it really should be no problem to drive a fast car slowly, just don't put your foot down as much.
