damn, Nice vids. You have to start somewhere with the video editing. I thought driving around town with 300hp was fun.. i couldn't even imaging 700hp.

Yea, I must say I really like it. Its just like the PPG I had, but the gear ratio's are better. And yes you can downshift just fine. I try and rev match, but its not necessary. Im going to a track rental this friday so I'll get some much needed track time.
