WhiskeyIsQuick - I'd agree with that, or at least what I understood of it, I guess. I have driven 4 and 5spds for forty years, and I don't drive like granny, at all. I'm SOHC 5spd (no mods) and run all day long shifting in the 5krpm range. I have never babied my 93S, it's driven hard daily and has over 208k miles. Mechanically and cosmetically it is highly maintained. Very few cars rated under 225hp beat me to the posted speed limit. including 3S DOHC ATs and even some MTs! But I choose my victims well, so I wouldn't even try taking on a TT. I even beat a county cop to 60 on the highway. He peeled out on the green and I thought "um, play or stay?" then "hey, wait for me!". Beat him by 1.5 cars to 60 on my speedo. I think he was late for work cause he turned shortly thereafter at the station.
Hey, he started it!

So, WhiskeyIsQuick, but MySOHCisQuicker
