i got 1 good and 1 crazy experience. and 1 craziest experience
The Good one was when me 13 year old boy, almost 14, learned to drive manual in mom's van! was pretty fun, only stalled it once, but i knew the theory already, cose i always interested myself in driving n stuff, since really really young, here in portugal most cars are manual too though, and the crazy one was when my dad went with me near the beach in his A6 3.0 TDI quattro, he was goin really calm, when suddenly started raining and we entered a curvy road, the car has auto gearbox, he pushed the thingy in the gearbox to the S (Sport Position), which makes the car Shift at higher Revs and does some weird things that make it have more aceleration, so after seein him do that i got a lil scared, cose i dont really like speeds and acelerations, then he floored it till 80 kmh, then he switched from S to Tiptronic(allows you to sequencially shift your car) and he Made the car reduce shift and floored it, shifting to 5th gear at 120, then as that wasnt enough, he floored till 160 kmh, shifting to 6th gear, then he put the gearbox back into D (Drive position) where the car shifts automatically, like Sport, but at lower revs and has lower aceleration, i stopped sweating^^ and we went back home^^
and now the craziest,: On my dad's previous A4 1.9 TDI, on the freeway we went to 230km/h, but at that time i loved speed^^, the reason i get scared of speeds and REALLY SCARED of high revs and loud tunned, or not tunned car noises is dued to a bad experience inside a work truck.. prefer not talkin bout it anymore!
