I'm also bored.

Wanted to go drive my brother's car more but had to stop so he could go to work.

Maybe I should've let him take my car so I can practice on his for the rest of the evening.

Just neutral drop the FRS everywhere. Rev it up in neutral and then slam it into drive. Nothing bad could possibly come of that.

Wuss. Give one of these a try and get back to us!

I did that in my old corolla before buying the FRS.

Took it like a champ after a few neutral drops. Still running to this day, last time I checked.

Haven't seen it in 30 years. It is now either somebody's baby or soup cans.

Had to get help pushing that clutch in on a cold winter day. Only plus was there were only three gears to row through.

I see your advice and raise.

Yeah, once you are going, say at least 50 in D, I like to slam in it in the racing gear R, or better yet the passing gear P. It's crazy, be ready for the ride of your life if you try my technique!

I presume the R gear unlocks VTEC?

Yes! The VTEC is activated by shifting quickly into R.

Since I have an auto, how can I pretend to be in a fast and furious movie?

Awesome! Well, if you're not a super model like Tyrese, its going to be hard. Plus, I think that he drove a convertible eclipse, one of the fastest most powerful cars on the planet. And look at that in dash sceen, just wow.

So, my suggestion would be to make cool engine and car sounds, like in the movie, while driving. You will feel extra cool making the turbo blow off noise! Pswoosh! Yeah!

So I am a lazy driver as evidenced by me choosing the auto over the manual.

Would this be an adequate alternative to making the blow off pigeon flutter noise?
