I voted 8
But my car is my DD. And I love in Canada. So you know, snow and salt and shit. Maybe i'm a little higher than 8 if you factor that stuff in

I found that if you swerve back and forth like you're trying to put heat in the tires you get multiple VSC penalties.. I call them penalties because it's like nope, sorry Dave, I can't do that.. and it slows you down a little or a lot sometimes.

My right leg, from hip to ankle (joints), is man-made. My only (official) choice is 1 or 10. 10 is best, and I can prove it, Ocifer!

I beat on it about half the time. The rest of the time I just roll laid back enjoying my first and only ever new car. It's good at both and I only gain greater love for the car.

8 goes for me.
After my brz has been just my weekend car, i find myself trashing the car every time i drive it. By trashing, i mean that i drive the car hard and i feel like the car loves it. |

I'd say im a 7. I usually just turn all the systems off (not the pedal dance) on the back roads and can occasionally get the systems to flash at me doing 40-50mph. Thats where i draw my line.
everybody thinks they are fast. I'd smash everyone in my old GTR on the local backroads, porsches/z06s/camaros etc, until i met a guy with racing experience and a stock-ish 2nd gen viper who i simply couldn't keep up with out of sheer fear for my life lol.

I'm a solid 7. Generally put-putting around town but I usually rev-match down shift. Occasionally hit the freeway on-ramp at WOT to 2nd gear red line. Track it hard though.

Seriously, like I stole it. almost all of the time. it's even worse now that I put exhaust on (ARK GRiP knockoff) because now it just ROARS! I am sideways around 80% of the corners that I drive if there's no traffic (I don't want to hit someone). I shift at 7k every time.
I bought the car to have fun in, and I definitely do that. |

i'd say 9...always downshift rev match to second and sometimes to first just to hear the exhaust...redline every gear possible especially 1st and 2nd and 3rd...launch the car whenever i'm in front of pack of traffic at a light...take turns fast enough to the threshold of my tires...it's a sports car so i believe it should be driven as such and pushed to the limit
