i typed 1/4 to kind of put some context or a real application to a hypothetical question or situation because going 0 to 100 as fast as possible on a public road is not generally a practice most people do. i always stop a little over speed limit and i've never floored it all the way to my recollection for an extended amount of time. maybe just a boost but i pull back fast because it accelerates in a hurry. from stop the wheels just spin so i've never mashed it all the way down. so i've always seen the car shift because i guess ive never pushed it that hard before.
