how much fuel is left in the tank when it cuts out? could be as simple as running low on fuel and it moving to the other side of the tank.

Well if you drove the car normally, you wouldn't need to be putting the foot down through corners!

Pfff,what!!!!.Mate, some people arent scared of their car and actually like to drive it,which usually includes accelerating through or out of corners etc,reading that reminds me of these clowns who buy an SS or whatever and then drive then at 40 km/h everywhere.Im sure most people buy one thinking it makes them look good,then they are either just too hopeless or scared of driving it. 99% of SS owners I see, drive them like granny,why not just get a normal commodore if you cant drive,driving a sports oriented car like granny is just a waste of a good car.And driving quick doesnt always mean driving like an idiot.

You were obviously were never taught, or understanded the concept of "Time & Place". Just because people buy an SS and you don't seem them open it, doesn't mean they never do. Or it does. What difference does it make to you anyway? For all you know they could take it to a track and be sensible about it.

Sorry, I didn't realise there was another way of driving a car :S

Mate, driving quickly is a world away from driving radically or unsafely.Ive been driving quickly for 25 years,Ive never crashed a car,or even had a speeding ticket.Ive got a NSW gold 5 year licence now,and I never drive at the speed limit,always over it.(except school zones) or in areas where kids might be around town,,but what Im really getting at is that 95% of SS owners drive them slower than normal,like 60-70 in an 80 zone,or 40-50 in a 60 zone etc.,as I said,its like they are scared of them,I see it every time I drive,theres an SS going slow or even holding up traffic.And its usually people aged over 30 driving.
