800 miles, sureeee. Dont you have any idea how long you have to wait and how much fuel youre going to have to use to achieve 800 miles?

800 miles / avg. mpg 23 = 34.78 gallons to reach 800 miles
34.78 gallons X at $2.30 per gallon (87 oct) = $79.994 for fuel.

Since youre a young driver, more than likely you wont pass 100 miles w/o reving pass 4k. You are going to fuck up the clutch. And you say 500 isnt enough? That's MORE than enough. The clutch should break in around 200-300 in reality, but the factory recommendation overdo just to be on the safe side.

Don't be a douchebag.. Seems like Jake is just trying to maybe become a better drifter ... People like you need to stop being so negative and put more energy into actually driving to futher the local scene.

I know I know even though Jake is like not the brightest bulb in the lamp: I can respect the fact that he is learning and growing.. I can honestly say from reading his post that maybe just maybe he is learning./rant

When you going to Clutch City Jake? Can I ride along I need to buy one too..

Paulie can kick everyone's ass in here, so he can look down and tell us how much we all stuck in life.
