Don't really get a tickle like on a roller coaster, but you can feel the power overtaking your body when you hit it in 3 gear going 60.

Tickle?
I think if you live in San Francisco, you'll feel a tickle, but definitely not in NY.

Ok big man, i hope that wasnt a gay remark, because when i say tickle im talkin about that drop in your stomach like you get on a roller coaster, or going fast down a hill from flooring the car.
