In a sense I can see how he could be scared considering the many losses we have had from people on these forums in such cases you know. Like, some got killed, others ahd their cars/parts stolen.

I've met with a LOAD of guys off of here though, and everyone's been a lot more kind than the damn priests in my school.

This is YOUR community man, have no fears.

Ive over reved before but I didnt stay in it. Mine cut off but that just bc the crank position sensor, it threw it out of timing for a breif moment.

your wheel doesn't lock when the engine isn't running. It will lock if the key is not in the On position fyi.

wow after reading the first page of responses they pretty much cover it... but anyways
1 get rid of that **** bov
2 grow up just because an evo pulls behind you doesnt mean u have to be an *** and start tryin to race..
3 i wouldnt even try to get it coverd..
4 and final.. smart to try and race after your car is acting up... you dont deserve an evo from the sounds of it!

Gl with all!
