Thanks Guys. Wheeew. I think everything's okay. Having replayed the event in my mind about two hundred times I'm pretty sure I was AT LEAST totally on top of it after the error. A "billionth" of a second elapsed before I knew I blew it and slammed the clutch back in. I know smashing the valves into the pistons happens faster but at least I wasn't sitting there for a few "minutes" wondering what was going on.

Anyway, I learned two things (If necesssary repeat after me):

1. No hot-dogging until the gearing-habits of the C2S are completely forgotten. Just nice "slow" deliberate shifts in the TT for a few thousand miles.

2. Showing off for friends/passengers is really beneath me. When I do it (fairly rarely) I feel like a immature ADD kid later. Gives nothing but a few seconds of mutually smiling/giggling guys being bad (in a bad way) with a very expensive car. One which _I_ happen to _own_ and be responsible for, for crissakes!

Again: I am most grateful for you guys' brainpower and experience.





OK, now that that is behind you, I recommend a nice dry martini to celebrate your new toy. Make mine a Blue Sapphire.
