I know man. Same here. I was out driving and I was thinking to myself I wonder if other people drive this aggressively (going WOT often)?

Sometimes I roll up to a stoplight and I just want to mash the gas from a stop but I don't want to give the other driver's around the impression that I am trying to "race" or drive reckless.

I just want to go fast too.

i live in a city, so there isnt much room to go WOT, and when im on the freeway, its kinda busy but a downshift to about 3k revs gives me enough pull to around cars.

I mostly go WOT on the freeway and hardly ever in first anymore.
I think that 3rd gear is the best for WOT.

WOT in 1st not very often, because its so violent and attracts a lot of attention with burning rubber, etc... 2nd gear I can ease into WOT, but 3rd gear is my favorite "mash it" gear.

Haha good to see that I'm not the only one out there. Had a feeling I wasn't!

+1 on causing a lot of attention going WOT in 1st gear.

I love to go WOT from about 30mph in 2nd gear on a freeway onramp every day after work. I usually hit 100 about midway into 3rd gear and then slow it down real quick to about 80. One time I noticed a CHP car with lights flashing, but luckily he was just pulling someone else over. So I'm just real careful with it now. I also love to launch hard out of a red light, but I try to only do that when there's no one else around. I guess it's addicting and one of the reasons I look forward to driving every day.

Oh baby, 2nd gear from 30 or so on an onramp is the best. I thought "I" was the only one who ragged on these cars.......glad to see I'm not. I spoke to a customer with a STEP E90 328i yesterday, convo went like this:

customer: "so how far up can I take this thing?"
me: "what do you mean?"
customer: "on the dash, how far can I take to needle to?"
me: "you mean the tachometer?"
customer: "yeah, the revs"
me: "well it has a rev limiter sir, so you can rev it as high as you like"
customre: "REALLY?!! I was afraid to take it over 3K incase I hurt it"
me: "Sir, you could put a brick on the throttle in neutral for 20 minutes and not hurt that engine"
customer: "AWESOME!!!"

I knew he was original owner, so I looked at the odometer and it had 12K miles on it
