I would say how low my car sits and how small it is… people don’t see me!
when your stuck behind the worst and slowest driver ever on the on ramp to a 70mph dual carriageway when the slow driver merges at 40!
“perfecting the heel toe” seriously? you dont NEED to heel toe for daily driving…. but ok
It’s fun though. I do it almost all the time :/
Once you started doing it it will become a habbit and you’ll keep doing it

2+1 highways. Don’t know how common they are outside of Sweden but god I hate these things! Ok so you have a total of three lanes with two lanes in one direction and one lane going the other, and the road will alternate between them giving you about 1 km of either at a time. Problem with this is if you on a 110 km/h end up behind for example someone pulling a trailer at 80 km/h and need to overtake, you will only have so much room to overtake before your lane closes! Now this is fine as long as you have even a somewhat decent car, but when there are say 2-3 other cars following that trailer, all doing 80 km/h and no one overtaking that means you’ll be stuck doing 80 on a 110 km/h road because there’s no way I’ll be able to overtake all of those cars in my 132 hp Ford Mondeo within this 1 km space! F*ck these highways! Even worse are people who will gladly do 110-120 on the two-lane part, but feel the guardrails are too close and slow down to 90 on the single lane parts!
You don’t need to heel and toe while daily driving
Fun though. I don’t bother in my ST but when I drive my wifes corsa it’s a different story. Maintaining max speed. Getting on the power as quickly as possible. I can give bmw/audi wannabes a fright on twisties driving like that in a 1.2.
Constantly changing down to stay in the powerband
OMG i made it in to the list.First time.
That Evo shifting at “Snow”
Texting and driving isn’t really as bad as people say. I do it all of the time an have only gotten in 3 accidents because of it. - nobody
