How do you slow down?
 
Just curious if people slow down through shifting anymore, I know my uncle does at every stop light.. The car will natrually slow its self down if you downshift correctly cause the high RPM's like pull you back and cause you to slow.

I would if I had the energy, I peferr using those brakes! haha:D Gotta save my energy for stuff that really counts, +1 for rallying backroads.

aggressive driving/showing off-downshift
Being practicle/conservative neutral+brakes

Its a lot cheaper to replace brake pads than a clutch/tranny.

Oh wait... I drive tip... [&:]
