is it possible to drive your turbo car without bringing it on boost at some point of your jerny?

mine is all ready for friday runnins sweet as a nut, i needed to pop to the post office in it but said to myself NO BOOST!!!!!!

managed to get their (3 miles) and 2 miles home.

then on the last road their was a bus at the bus stop so i gave it some welly

was fun though

guess i'm just a boost junkie!!!

I just can't do it. I drive sedately for so long and then just have to burry my right foot in the carpet. Number of times I've had a 10 mile drive home from an office 300yds away is untrue
