    GH:
    nope... built-in feature of Lynx RS 2.0L engines. Rev it too high for too long (anything more than 5 seconds) and it drinks oil. If you do it long enough, it blows up. Natural built in rev limiter.
    haha

    natural rev limiter nga

    you stop revving when it seizes up

    I haven't driven past there late at night but often enough during the day time. The place seems great for such purposes. We'll see in a week or so when the weather is much better for these racers to come out.

    Which is weird... because the SR20 is supposedly more prone to water pump cavitation at high rpms, and GH didn't boil over on the way. Of course, hard to get high coolant temperatures when the wind going through the radiator is flowing at over 220 km/h... :hysterical:
    I was well aware of that problem but I didn't stay at 6500 to 7500 rpm range long enough for the water pump cavitation to give temperature problems. Advantage of not pinging off the rev limiter

    Damn you and your longer gears and rev range! Hahaha... with the RS's short gearing, it felt like I was shifting twice as often as you... :hysterical:

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    sa daytime madaming Pasay Traffic Police na mangongotong, sa gabi madaming Airport Police naman na rumoronda. So i guess street racing would be impossible to do here.

    thank god walang nagaattempt na mag street race dito. madaming maaksidente or masasagasaan malamang

    The lanes going towards the general direction of the Domestic Airport are relatively flat.... The opposite lanes (going towards the general direction of the ramp up to Skyway) are bumpy. Siguradong magliliparan ang mga nagkakarera roon....
