What's the green light to hit the gas?

the oil temp comes up relatively quick...but tonight 15 minutes into the drive my Trans temp is still under 100.

When do you give yourself the "go" to GO?

About 6 miles of driving time. (That's how far away from home it is for me to get to a ~3 mile open, flat, straight and isolated stretch of highway that seldom has any other cars on it.) :grin2:

like 4 miles (2 minutes of driving out of the garage and long driveway, then 5 minutes at 50 mph)once the oil temps have come up, its go time.

trans temp doesn't really rise if you are just coasting. I like my first WOT every day to get leaned into. I will use the paddles get it into 3 or 4th then ramp to WOT. I just don't like the idea of it going from 0 to 100 in milliseconds(***** real quick, real f**king quick.LOL) once that happens then I feel free to go back to automatic shifting, and let her downshift her little heart ou on quick WOT snaps. good times. im going for a drive. lol
