Quick acceleration to speed is okay. I am referring the people (we all know them) who are constantly accelerating/decelerating because they have poor throttle control. I used to have a brother-in-law that no one could stand to ride with. He was contantly on and off the throttle....would drive you crazy.

just sign up for DEs with your local PCA - you will loose any desire to drive above, well, let`s put it at 85mph.

I'm a lot of things, but not stupid. Really. You sure read a lot into what I posted. Doesn't mean I won't be your friend, though.
