I really hate to waste either kinetic or potential energy, so I use brakes only as a last resort. I view unnecessary braking as akin to throwing a small handful of pennies out the window each time. Of course it also has a lot to do with driving type 3s with stock engines which require a long time to get back up to speed. - ******************************* Jim Adney, jadney@vwtype3.org Madison, Wisconsin, USA ******************************* ------------------------------------------------ To unsubscribe, E-mail to: <type3-off@vwtype3.org> For more help, see http://vwtype3.org/list/
