Now now... dont get all jaded because someone critized a post you made... The right way to handle the situation is to say Dont believe me? Well come for a ride then...

Just because you drop the clutch at 6K does not mean you will go faster... When you drop the clutch just before redline first gear does not get you up to speed to maximize the use of second gear... this can make you slower than you really are... I was merely trying to make a point to you that maybe you should try looking into driving that saturn a little better and faster. One of the main ways to make you a faster driver is to drive the powerband and in your car you were dropping the clutch after the peak power... useless.

Also being that there are many different personalities here why not try to not take things so seriously...?? The ONLY thing that I take seriously in the webboard is the advice... People read and write on this board while drunk high etc... so people here can be harsh and can be nice the next day... its funny that way...

As for you only taking advice in person one person imparticluar you are limiting your resources... if he is a V-8 lover he will steer you away from the imports which might actually fit your budget and goals or vice versa. Well I am sure you will be back to read this message...
