B. Is it okay to drive with it in the city?
C. Is it okay to redline and hit the fuel cut? (DumbAss Friend forgot to shift)....his excuse, "I didn't know that it wouldn't shift for you."
D. Is it okay to downshift when exiting the freeway at high speeds?
....Thanks for your time....

A. Does anyone know whats not okay to do with the SS? It's pretty much foolproof.
B. Is it okay to drive with it in the city? Yes.
C. Is it okay to redline and hit the fuel cut? (DumbAss Friend forgot to shift)....his excuse, "I didn't know that it wouldn't shift for you." No, it's not okay. It's not going to destroy your car, but try not to do this too often.
D. Is it okay to downshift when exiting the freeway at high speeds? Yes, I do this all the time.

The downshifting comes in handy when the radar detector goes off. Good way to slow down without hitting the brakes.
