    Default Do You Baby it or Bag it?

    Just wondering how you guys drive your cars on a day to day basis. I know I bag on mine for sure. I'm always floating somewhere around redline when I drive.

    Baby it.
    If not, it would have fallen to pieces already.

    if its nice out, I'll take it to redline probably about 75% of the time I'm driving, haha.
    Actually that's just lately since we haven't seen much nice weather and I've been itching to hit VTEC.

    I'm pretty easy on my car around the city. But when I get on the freeway and there's light traffic, I let it loose and have fun
