More than yours. At least I added something to the thread. No further correspondence will be entered into on the subject. 
If you are not aware of what your vehicle is doing (and that includes in what gear you are in /revs engine is doing), you are not in control. Or do you think that accelerating in the middle of a bend in 1st, 3rd or 5th gear is going to produce the same effect?
For your information, I have raced motocross motorbikes (without a rev counter) for a few years, acted as a navigator in a couple of rallyes, and I feel qualified in that respect. On the other hand, I do not have a playstation or any other form of gaming console. Perhaps you need a course in reality.
Finally, do you really think that having a drivers' license means you are able to drive?
Talk about making bold statements.
