no the tranny is OK (so far, knock on wood)

I just did not feel like following him, left the tranny in D5.




Oh and earlier I was at a left turn behind a G35. By the time it was my turn to go through the intersection, the left turn arrow turned yellow. So I took the turn pretty fast, with a drift, so my tires squealed. The G35 driver must have thought I was trying to o something and gunned it. I could not catch that G35.

I dont consider weaving thru traffic a race or speed ..... its more like lets see who can create the most road rage ...of coarse the smaller car will will be at the advantage under these conditions.

yes when you are doing that kind of weaving in and out, you can NOT do it with the tls without crashing. the is300 is good enough for that.

but then i think it's stupid driving like that
