That's the way I drive... it's getting to the point where my friends are too afraid to get into my car.mmamdouh wrote: Acing: i can't do anything other than beeing concentrated on the road while driving... i drive as crazy as hell and i can't lose concentration... even the passengers along side can't do anything as they are always too busy praying for their lives.

just an update on that... and hour and half ago i was on the high way kinking some Hayndai accent 1.3 driver's ass at 170 Km/h... i was very concentrating on the road that i couldn't look at my speedometer so i asked my passenger "what speed am i doing now??" he said "170" that was the highest speed i have ever done in my woo :twisted:
the manual states that the top speed of my car (1.5 SOHC) is 172 Kms... OK i was going on a slightly down sloaping section of the road with a removed resonator and CAT but i had an extra passenger along side, a 11 Kg jack, 18 Kg tool bag and other crap in the trunk causing extra weight, i say my woo is pretty healty for a 6.5 years old little car :twisted: :twisted:

I wouldnt think weight would make much difference at high speeds

weight makes difference at all speeds... it is the force opposing your attemps to move.
if you were correct then an 8 ton dump truck can run head to head with your car if you both are going at 110 MPH (where you assumed weight doesn't count) but that is not the case... maybe you need less torque to accelerate at higher speeds but still you will need more power to speed up a heavier car.
