Soo... is this poll still accurate, or has everyone gotten a bit softer with age?

I take it a little bit easier just so my fuel lasts a bit longer, and sometimes so I get a longer drive if I'm busy. That may change when I have more money and more time :grin:

I'm too boring! My AU hasn't been raped in over 10 months! That would be because I busted it and still haven't got it back on the road

What is the limiter for a stock e-series?
Mine gets to about 5,400 once a day and shakes like a dirty dirty girl until i back off...

6.2 was a guess. only did it once and thought never again.. massive vibration thru the acc pedal...
when it shifts it still feels like it has plenty of power so the limiter could probably be raised a bit

I'm soft. But I don't mind leaning on 2nd coming out of a slow 90deg corner. In not sure if its the handling/grip I have in my falcon or the fun that 2nd gear provides.
