Coasting
« on: 25 August 2009, 22:15 »
I have heard that coasting too much eventually reduces the power of the engine and stops the car from going into high revs - over 3500 rpm  - is this true? Are there any other pros and cons with coasting? :grin:

Why would you be coasting anyway unless you just passed your test  :grin:
