I once went past a cop giving a ticket. I put it in neutral because i wanted to be inconspicuous and the car reved like crazy and the cop looked up at me. I never want that to happen again.
Thats funny, but the exhaust isnt that loud anyway.

You're still revving at a cop... no matter how loud it is, you can still hear it.

That's true. It could get loud when you rev on the streets with no other cars around. It wasn't just one rev. It was multiple revs because I was moving the stick shift left and right (like gear checking; bad habit).

That's actually a good habit, just not when you pop out of neutral from 4th or 3rd with SRM. The thing just senses when you might go down, so I've actually just trained myself to move it to the right instead of the left.
