Yes, indeed. I dropped it into 3rd gear and floored it yesterday while merging on to highway and rocketed past a swarm of cars coming from behind. Though, my wife as much as she loves to hear the noise, freaks out if I accelerate hard LOL

I played with the tire pressures a bit and the most perfect one I found was 37 psi rear and 36 psi fronts. It feels very stiff and shrinks around you while driving in S+ mode and TVD in track mode. It really stiffens the tire walls up and the rear is still very lively especially in temperatures below 10 C or 50 F. I was with my wife and daughter and coming out of a strip mall, I put it in S+ and manual (TVD in normal) and gunned it in 1st gear the rear end wagged as the engine screamed up to redline. LOL Being new to RWD, it was still very easy to control. I let off after that since the temperatures were a bit on the colder side (around 45 F) and the rear end was struggling for traction.
As I wrote above, I wanted to completely eliminate any squat or tire wall roll laterally so tried a few tire pressures and set on 36 psi front and 37 psi front. The rear end feels extremely stiff with almost no tire roll and the front end still wants to turn-in sharply so it works perfectly for my liking. I will definitely try to write a review before my RCF goes into hibernation for the winter.
