Unfortuantely our B2 faces inwards, so it shows the speed - so she knows - DOH!

I know when I'm going too fast for my wifes liking, I notice her gripping the seat belt. s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:

That's funny - Lisa does that constantly, even if I'm only doing 10mph!

I'm not that bad, honest...

heathstimpson · January 14, 2004, 21:38

My missus grips the belt as well and really freaks out when I'm overtaking. I just tell her thats what the car was built to do; go like a bullet s:lol: :lol: s:lol: s:lol: :lol: s:lol: s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Chris · January 14, 2004, 22:40

Here's a tip for next time. Floor the clutch, raise the revs to about 6000rpm, then move your left foot sidewards from the clutch, so that the clutch pedal can freely jump up(and floor the throttle when your left foot leaves the clutch pedal.

It won't be the clutch that's burning s:twisted: :twisted: s:twisted:

Oh and make sure there's some room in front of you s:wink: :wink: s:wink:

Edit: And don't do that when Slacey is with you s:roll: :roll: s:roll:
