i don't mash my throttle to the floor at every light, is that really so hard to imagine?

i feather the throttle in 1st, then 2nd, then 3rd, coast for a bit, put it in 5th, coast some more, feather the throttle, ohh time to slow down

or how about this, i get on the highway, put it in H and cruise for the next hour or so

occasionally when i'm out driving at midnight or something when the streets arn't packed with idiots i can open the car up a bit, but the 60 or 80km speed limit kinda takes the buzz out.


maybe out in boonie land where cops sleep and the roads go on for miles and miles without a single light in sight, but that ain't here.


when i want have fun with the car, i go to the track, and then it sees 7k all day long and i don't ever feel this "dip"
what does that have to do with anything? i've owned over 20 cars in my life, in nearly every combination from fwd n/a 4cyl to rwd v8.

this torque dip bs is exactly that, bs. it is infuriating for someone that enjoys a little spirited driving on a daily basis.
