With gas prices - is anyone still doing their recommended WOTs?:alchi:

 

[94CaddyConcours]

I DO:tease:

 

[Rich_M]

I do. I can't help myself. The right foot takes control.

 

[WoodShoe]

I cant be the only one that WOTs at least 20 to 30 times a day.... at least its clean in there :yup:

 

[NYCadillac]

Dont even get me started on this one.. :burn:

 

[davesdeville]

The extra couple cents is worth it to me. I don't really care if my car were to start burning a bit of oil, I just do it for the fun of it anyway.

Important WOT operating procedure:

Windows must be down! So you can hear that Northstar sing!!

 

[Eldyfig]

It's part of my budget. Wife keeps asking me what WOT means in our budget planner.

 

[Wenatchee Andy]

Its most gratifying to employ WOT with a passenger in the DeVille who's unfamiliar with the Northstar feeling. :lildevil:

- haha that is awesome. tell her its a wise investment.

- yes it is, but sometimes they think you are gonna get them killed.

Correction.. with me they ALWAYS think they're gonna get killed, especially with the sound of aftermarket exhaust. Ehh.. they learn after the first time though, what's even better is the look on the drivers face next to you when the Northstar starts roaring. :lildevil:

6,000+ RPMs x 8 cyl x 4 valves/cyl is pretty exciting!

Mine torque steers so damn bad I think Im going to get killed, tis why I never did it again. Why am I the only one?

 

[Eldyfig]

Just do it on a fair straight away. I took off around a slight corner wanting to put an old 5.0 with flowmasters in its place. Had to get it under control. Probably looked like an idiot. I got it straight and showed the 5.0 my back side.

Just FYI, I found that better quality tires seem to have a lot less torque steer (not saying you don't have quality tires). Just a thought.

Your not! I almost shit myself twice cause of this.. but it never happens as bad if i'm going like 35 and then floor it. Its at its wo.rst when its from a dead stop. I dont think tires have much to do with it, i'm running Falken Azenis ST115's 245/40/18 which are pretty sticky.

 

[fullserviceman]

Well for mine it seems ok only if you are doing 55mph or so then drop the peddle to the ground. It doesnt seem to downshift allthe way that way. Once the black smoke settles it is almost as powerful as my 96 LT1 caprice was.

 

[MACTICULOUS]

I'm pretty sure that I've done this before but let me ask...

By WOT, you guys mean flooring it which lets the car haul major ass past people, right? If the answer is yes, then I'm guilty of it

. By the way, how often should it be done?

Till you go blind............... :yup:

 

[powerglide]

My car cruises at 95 MPH for about 2 minutes, twice a day every week day.

Carbon on the rings.....no chance!
