Hey kbin! Have you ever driven a fast car, and I mean a really fast car. What’s it like? (kbin.social)

Hi friends, I have a question for you out there. What is it like to drive an awesomely fast sports car. Like a Porsche or Ferrari or Lamborghini? My question is more about the accelerator pedal. Is it more sensitive? Or does it depress a further distance than your typical Ford or Buick would? How do you control the speed around town if the machine is built to go so much faster so much more quickly than your average daily driver?

Thanks for indulging me.

I haven’t driven anything quite that fast. But in my experiences the gas pedal is just more sensitive. I’ve never experienced one that has any noticeably longer travel. In terms of co trolling it around town, that’s why you have different gears. Especially since a good portion of cars are automatic/semi-automatic/dual clutch systems that do the work for you. And when some of these systems have more than 5 or 6 gears like normal cars.
