For those of you who drive a 5-speed, how many of you have put it to the 6 grand line and lifted off the clutch and listened to those tires/tyres spinning?<br><br>That sound will turn quite a few heads and create quite a few surprises. Most people think that a 4-cylinder engine can't produce a speak, let alone a good 6 second peel!<br><br>Try it sometime, especially if there are a bunch Rice Boys around. That'll make them quiver!!!!!

Not that impressive really, I could light up the tires on my 53Hp 3 Cylinder Geo Metro

Only six seconds, eh? Ever tried using the e-brake when you're peeling out? Doing a beautiful bodacious burnout to heat up the tires and prep the asphalt will turn even more heads. :)<br>Taking it to six thousand RPM is kinda excessive figuring that peak torque floats under five.<br><br>Seriously though, I hate to break it to ya, but peeling for 6 seconds when the light turns green leaves you about 6 seconds behind any rice rocket that's adjacent to ya. Don't make it a habit though, it's hell on your transaxle & CV's, not to mention you just totally voided your tire warranty.
