> [@Xander](#): > > Do you leave the Tollbooth like it’s the Gheyth mile? depends on who I line up with 😉 the 75c toll by the peace bridge is a great place to light them up! if im in a far lane that normally would have to merge into a different lane, ill certainly get on it asap if i roll through the ezpass b/c i dont have any change, and i see some punk kid trying to pull some crazy stunt, ill hit is just the same :tup: haha now that i think about it, there isn’t really any situation where i won’t hammer the throttle coming out of a toll edit: if there is some officer checking inspections i might wait a moment before getting on it, but ill definately try and blow off next to him :rolljerk: ---

In the Fiero, pretty much all the time. I can’t think of many times I’ve EVER shifted that thing below 4000, except when there is a cop within 100 yards. In the Expedition, only when I really need to in order to merge, like on the GI bridge where it goes from 5 lanes to 2. It costs to much to get on it all the time. ---

now that i think of it, i always got on the gas coming out of the tolls, i dont think ive ever driven nicely, especialy going the GI bridge … hammer on it and get out front to find a spot in traffic … ---

i leave a big quick, but i don’t do a burnout like at the toll or anything. where’d this thread come from? you sure you don’t wanna have another toda thread asking whether the tp rolls over or underhand from the roll? EDIT: i mean i kinda like glass tabletops, but wood is cool in its own right, i like honey-roasted peanuts but almonds are pretty cool too, and peanut butter pretty much is cooler than most people i know… ---

Any chance I get to bang through the gearz I hit it y0. I will punch almost always unless there is crazy traffic. I love the way my exhaust/turbo sounds on the GI bridge right next to the wall there so it is almost garunteed I will do it there. ---
