not often... a couple of times a week... like my gas mileage

 

used to be as often as i drove, but after blowing my first clutch thought i might take it easy for a little bit

 

drive it like i stole it..

 

i drive my evo 7 days a week 5 days of the week i drive 120+ miles to and from work with alot of WOT

 

I daily drive my EVO so I have never launched it hard. I just hit 1,000 miles and have finally stepped on it. I love the pull of second and third gear, its hard to believe the car has such great power even in stock form. I usually shift at 3-3500 RPM around town but I have to hit boost at least a couple of times every time I drive it. Overall I'm pretty nice to it, I like my gas mileage too.

 

I bought the car to haul *** and thats the way I drive. Unless Im seriously tired or occupied with something else...But 2/3 times I drive it Id probably be arrested if a cop were watching. And Im not ashamed

 

Beat on my car? Why would I beat my car? I wash and wax it but never beat it. It has never been bad to me








I hit WOT boost at least once every time I drive it, sometimes more.

 

i would not say i beat on it. i do take care of my cars very well
but i do redline it at least once a day. i never launch it though

 

I don't beat on my car but I drive it hard about 15-20% of the time.

 

Mine is a dd. Problem is I only live a mile from work. By the time I pull in my parking spot my oil temp isn't even warmed up! Whenever I do get the chance to get out I always do a little aggressive driving. Never launch on the street but try to make it to the drag strip every other month.

 

The same amount that I beat on my wife unit ;-)

 

I rarely do unless I feel like doing some spirited driving or someone cuts me off really bad. Other then that I baby it like no other.

 

As much as possible. Sometimes it's fun to put the pedal to the metal.

 

I admit that I don't drive my Evo IX hard at all. I know it's meant to be driven hard, but I just don't. It's my daily driver and I drive it like a normal car on a daily basis. I typically average close to 320-330 miles for a full tank. I do go out on the occasional spirited drive through some twisty roads around my house, but I still don't beat on it. My Evo has also never seen a race track or drag strip. I just don't drive it like it should be. That's part of the reason why I'm selling it right now. It needs to be with an owner who will mod the car (engine, tranny, intake, exhaust are untouched) and drive it like it was meant to be driven.

 

the real question is how often do you "beat off" inside your car, LOL
