The downside? I can't even begin to get into the throttle below 45 mph, it's pointless. If someone wants to race me in town, I avoid it. Should I actually hook a little bit I will run over whatever is in front of me in a matter of seconds. This isn't fun and is very dangerous. In the crossfire I can play stoplight to stoplight.

Everything is a tradeoff. I wish more stuff was available, but at the same time, it keeps me from spending more money on it.
Good point, as I said, I will fall pray to this myself as I admit calling them a month ago, just was not sure of the results until I read Eracer76 thread here. What I would be more interested in is how you would do against other high-end euro-sports cars around town. Here in Palm Beach, Fl. that is what I am up against.
