For the rest of us....
"Hoonage"
Aggressively flogging a car, but in a manner that stops just short of reckless.
ex.
Taking that turn sideways at 60 miles per hour? That's some serious hoonage.

Oh god, I can't wait until my car hits 1000 miles. Not that it is some magical number, where magical pixies come in and ensure that everything is properly seated, but I just can't bear to flog it until then. So far I'm up to 720ish, but every mile has felt like 10.

I did once have to perform a brief "emergency" run to ~6000RPM, just for, you know, safety. Kind of like a fire drill. But redline, no. Can't get myself to do it.

Should of read that...red lined a few times in my AT (I was just surprised that was even possible) and it smelled very "engine-y"

I'm right there with you, I've redlined a couple of times (didn't smell anything though). I'm only like at 400 miles though :mad0259:
