I'm not an insane stunter. Or a street racer. Just a guy that likes to WOT occasionally. Usually, it's Saturday mornings, or Sunday mornings, when I go grab doughnuts or bagels for the family unit.

There really isn't any need to get into 4th 5th or 6th. I just like the acceleration, NOISE (thank you vance and hines, k&n, and opec), wind and annoying people sleeping in.

So - use the poll, then post WHEN and WHERE you like to get naughy and WOT your suzi ?

I'm not a stunter, or even really a stupid rider (learned my lesson early)... But anytime I'm on the bike (which has been almost 3 weeks now, it's killing me.. gotta get her running)... I go WOT from every light, especially when I'm getting on the interstate... it's just fun... :laugh:

Ugh, much like NGFL,  I learned my lesson early :icon_confused:
However,  I let it wide open all the time.  My personal standard on highway on-ramps is to be exceeding the speed limit before I actually get on the highway. :icon_rolleyes:

i try not to but the devil makes me do it

I like doing it when someone in a tuner or vette pulls up next to me at a light.  It's a good feeling knowing they have no chance.

I like to WOT , quite often which is bad really , the best is 6 am on the way to mcds on a a127 , which is a Dual carrage way . basicly in the middle of no where just a road , no people walkin about ,no schools , its a 30 but 100 is pretty safe on it , the m1 is a long long motorway , 4 lanes on each side , and again in the middle of nowhere in spots , where u can really open up safely

And yea when a tuner car *Skyline , Evo , Scooby pulls up at a light , its nice to give a handful :thumb:

jay_wolf  - hey, what's a 'scooby' ?

O0

Freeway on ramps  :thumb: Gets up to 70 in a flash  :icon_mrgreen: , unless you get stuck behind those idiot drivers merging at 35 mph  :mad:.

You never Heard that term Ohgood?  maybe its a essex thing

a Scooby is a Suburu Impreza  :thumb:

Ahh ya man. You know we're the last to know about stuff on this side of the pond ;)

Hmm, given what I'm finding online, the 'scooby' might actually be an interesting 0-60 race. Not to mention I LOVE the sound of those motors.

There are alot of videos of folks being naughty in subarus. ;)

^^^   :laugh: :laugh: :laugh:   No way man that has been here since the wrx was released here in its first year!!!  You gotta get up with the lingo  O0

My mate has a 550 bhp scooby , on the dyno , 0-60 in 3.9

hmm 20,000 pounds UK invested ,

its a Impreza 22b , A rare model , only 10 are in my country or something

Does he WOT it ?
:laugh:

Oh Yea , u are Pushed into the bucket Seats , Feels like a pair of hands compressing your chest , it also has this button on it , that swops it from AWD, to rear wheel Drive , how cool is that!

Hmmmmm,  anyone hear about the BMW 1-series?????
Saying it's going to be a GTI competitor............  twin turboed inline 6 pushing 300 bhp from the factory....................I bet you could mod one of those little turds to hell and back :icon_twisted:

22b's are sweet.  nice. 

I dont like the Bug eye model, and the 22b is my fav model , and 550bhp at the wheels is sick!!

the 335i is twin turbo I6 pushing 330hp so its conceivably the same engine in the 1 series. I love the 1. I also love the 335i, but couldnt swing the extra $10k over my g35 (298hp from na v6).


to answer the original post-I used to WOT all the time in the local canyons, but after a few too many tickets I only do so at the track.

Always WOT in first gear.  I've got ALMOST 40hp, so why not?  The GS is the only bike you'll use all of.

Do I W.O.T.??
I get of work anywhere between 2am & 3.30am. You can guess the rest...
