So what is the answer to the original question? I don't think I saw it. Is there a relationship to RPMs and clutch wear? I can't figure how there could be, but what do I know?

"So remember a few rules:

-do not use this forum as a vehicle to attack others"


I remember reading this when I first signed up for this forum, and I've giving my advise just like everyone else here to help others.

Now I have this Silent Blunder guy coming out of nowhere and doggin' my car like a jealous little bi*ch.

There's no reason for trash talk in this forum. Anytime you want to run against my "chicktronic" let me know, I'm just next door.

Ha! Im not attacking you. You drive a TIPtronic (happy?), you cant redline it because its an automatic. A simple statement of fact, so get your facts straight.

And why would you resort to a level LOWER than myself by name calling? You are a hypocrite dave. A sensitive one at that, as you made clear.

You really don't your cars do you? " you cant redline it because its an automatic. A simple statement of fact, so get your facts straight."

Anyone reading this knows by that statement that you don't know what your talking about.

Alright, I should have specified. A correctly working factory tuned automatic. You could go past redline if you reflashed your control module.

Last I check you can bounce a Tip off the rev limiter just like you can bounce a manual off the rev limiter.

Your wrong on this one Bogg....ummm Silent Thunder.

Eeeahhh...wrong again genius. In the automatic mode it shifts using different modes depending on how you drive it. In the manual mode you shift it through the gears using the steering wheel thumb paddles, shifting in .2 tenths of a sec.

O' by the way, you can keep it any gear up to whatever rpm it can handle.

Funny, I thought I would have to defend my cars performance against other manufacturers similar products, not my peers own cars.

I'm done with this thread.
