MHakkinen,

I did touch redline in the first few gears with under 100 miles but I would characterize my driving style as moderate. I certainly did not stay under the 4200 rpm range but also did not red line the car except for a very few times. Generally, a would say that I shifted at around 5000 rpm's. My trips were generally in the 30-100 miles range. I don't think I have ever driven the car more than 100 miles on a trip. So, I would say that my driving style is moderately aggressive. I guess I should check for smoke under heavy acceleration but there is definitely no smoke or even a faint smell of smoke on start up. I have been driving 911's since the 70's and remember my first 911, a 1972 911T used a quart of oil every 600 miles and under heavy acceleration reminded me of the mosquito sprayers that ran the streets of my home town during the summers.
