I think that it awesome that Garm unless I am mistaken still gets in the mid 20's with the amount of balls his LB has.

Only reason I bought the Yaris. I was going broke paying $5 a gallon for premium gas in 2006. I would still be driving my Saab Viggen if I could have afforded it. I couldn't. I traded it and $3 grand for the Yaris, and have spent thousands less on gas and maintenance. If I had a decent job I would have put the $3 grand into the Viggen and it would be making over 300hp. I couldn't, and still can't.

Now a 6 speed transmission with close ratios is good for both keeping the revs up during racing and keeping the revs low for gas mileage.
