Mo offense, but if u really did that, i would click it so hard. i HATE ppl who drive under the limit. It just mean ppl behind you. or a couple of cars behind you will miss their set of lights, etc etc. screws evryone up.

i assume from this ghetto garble you mean that you put it in neutral when going down a steep hill.

this will use more fuel, and is dangerous. keeping your car in gear will use LESS FUEL, and give you more control.

furthermore, being in neutral will be LESS effective in maintaining a constant speed as the rotational interia of the engine is not being applied to the wheels to help you slow down, so you must use your brakes instead.

Sell your dc2r and buy a stock eg civic. Sounds like more of your car. You don't deserve to drive the dc2r.

Err... You are trying to create an argument from a scenario which I did not describe.

I don't drive under the speed limit for starters, and I think you need to take the number in my post literally. I'm NOT going to speed up to 60 then hit the brakes to come to a stop and wait even 15 seconds for the lights. I don't care if the president is greeting you; Me going 30kph for those 10 seconds means that I will will be stopped for 5 seconds, use less fuel in the process, not develop bad habits, all while your still right behind me no worse off. You won't miss your lights; In fact, i'm probably doing you a favour by keeping you from getting to full speed.

And driving style in this sense is hardly a laughing matter. It's going to be the difference between someone who gets 10L/100 and someone who gets 8L/100. Every bit counts, accelerating and decelerating slow doesn't cost you anything, and saves you something.

shebangs wtf dose saving pete got to do with i dont deserve a DC2R ? ?
can i not ask how to save pete ?

ne wayz thanx too pplz that help with the info !
