stop endangering other people's lives like that!

if you want to drive at brake-neck speeds in the rain, leave it for the race track!

Wow, I didn't mean to attack your video or anything of the such. I wasn't really critiquing you either. I was just trying to understand what they were commenting about your driving style. I do not claim to be a master or an expert, just regurgatating (sp) what I have read/heard. I personaly enjoyed your video, And about the arm comment. I am ovbiously not dumb. BUT, what I was reffering to was the fact that your whole arm shouldn't be moving back the entire length of the shift. If you read what I wrote you would see that I said it was more of a wrist movement. If you don't believe me, pick up a book on performance driving. Thats what I did.

For the rest of you with nothing but criticism..let me see you drive/film/edit/compress/post on ftp.....bet you can't do 1/2 of what I went to college for..I've been taught if you don't have something nice to say don't say it at all. This was something I did for myself as well as to share with you guys..and I get crap for it?

Congradulations!...You have put on video how not to drive! Excessive speed on the street, with wet roads, in traffic, is just plain STUPID.

Agree with most.
Sooner as your hand comes off the gear stick, straight back on the wheel.
Double Clutching, aah, rev matching using heal toe would be best when downshifting. I am sure you could find plenty of articles on rev matching on the web.
70 on wet roads with other cars on the road, aah... everyone has done it, not to clever but anyway. Nice vid, I've seen a few others of yours... keep 'em coming! I am definitely one of the jealous ones

Porchekliier, please allow me to be "straightforward" with you. After all, I wouldn’t want to be a "fake kiss-***":
I strongly recommend that you take an English grammar course. Your writing skills are pathetic. Are you even old enough to drive? It’s hard to tell with your 1st grade grammar skills. What does "Wonk on his shifting" mean anyway?!? Again this is just some "straightforward" advice. "Guess who will be the ultimate gainer..?"
I for one enjoyed the video.

Was traction controll on?
Seemed like you had very good traction considering it was wet out.

Anyway, thanks for the vid...get us some more...preferably in dry conditions.
Maybe some out of the car action (burnout? donuts?)

Why did you take down the video? I was looking forward to seeing it as well. Don't get wrapped up in what a few people have to say.

I guess his videos were removed from the server. I am disappointed cause they were well edited. Lentronic - any word on getting them back up?
