Whenever I drive it - usually two or three times a week - it sees 6800 RPM in first and second gear a few times. I never put the tach needle in the red zone, though. The only time that happened was when Al tuned it for me. I have never launched or raced the car, but I do find myself accelerating at WOT quite a lot. I'm still on the stock clutch at 65K miles and it's still perfect. When I mentioned this fact to Wartallon a few months ago in a PM, he told me that I don't really "use the car" if my clutch has lasted that long. But I disagree. I have a blast every time I drive it. I don't consider a ruined clutch at 7500 miles a badge of honor.

I'm planning on Ice racing once it gets colder here in Wisconsin. I met a guy that drives an S4 and he's with the SCCA. He kindda invited me to go check it out so might as well try....

i drive my evo hard sometimes but don't beat it....
to me beating it would be bouncing rev limiter, grinding gears, jumping it, etc.
when i think "beating" i think about what i used to do to my lot cars

I have never drive my evo to it's limited so I cant say I beat on my evo but I would say I have max my driving capability.
Beating on a car in my defination means you are trying to break something in your car so I have never done a stupid thing like that.
