to be fair ... I did think the other day as I was following in traffic at about 45 mph why was I sitting in 2nd gear at about 5k rpm with the exhaust popping and banging with the amount of fuel it was chucking in


i do that pmsl, plodding along behind traffic then realise wtf am i doing in 2nd lol


Yeh it's an old habbit of keeping it in the power incase I needed to suddenly accelerate in the 1.2 16v Corsa. However now I could probably just plod in 4th and accelerate if needed

I think it's secretly because I like the noise.
