Especially when they use OF instead of HAVE.




SO DON'T DO IT!!!!!

With your mods quite normal that he would do little more than creep on you. If you stretched it out well beyond 120mph he'd start to increasingly gain momentum on you but provided you drove out your skin below this then it would be as you describe.

You have to remember that the T1-R knocks a good second off your 0-100mph time compared to the stock car.
I didnt get anywhere near 120, was just over 100. As i say i had to slow down, as my turning approached.

"Of" isn't even a verb!

A verb. Present tense.

It could also be used as a past participle of course, but let's not go there.
