Please post more about driving techniques
I hope people will post more articles on driving techniques and their experience about driving. Oversteer, understeer, heel and toe, double clutching, auto crossing..... etc. I think driving a car is VERY fun, especially when I got improved on the driving skills or individual techniques. Even you have the best car in the world, but without appropriate techiques it is pointless. I would rather driving better and better with a old car than not knowing how to drive a best car in the world.
Well, I hope you don't mind my English language since it is not my first language.
Thanks.

heres my two cents of a unique driving style =)
how to lauch and audi S4 with an APR stage 1 chip (390hp, 410ft/lbs)
at the stop reve to 4k twice (build boost, normally in 1st gear it doesnt boost to the full 19psi)
on the thrid rev bring it up to 4500 and let off , the second you left off drop the clutch and hammer it =)
if you done it right the tires will break loose (good on the powertrain instead of no spin)
hard shift into second and break'em loose again, and shift at 60mph
i have some video of this, ill post a link later

personally i love oversteer on my car taking it into turns at highspeed wit the boost on max gives me a huge adreline boost.. like the saying goes.. "if ur in control of ur car you arent going fast enough"
