Consumer Description

THE CAR HAS BARELY ANY POWER. THE TACKOMETER REVS UPTO THE RED ZONE WHEN GOING UPHILL AND THEN STILL STRUGGLES TO KEEP SPEED. WHEN DRIVING ON THE STREET MY CAR REVS UP TO TO THE 6 ON THE TACKOMETER BEFORE CHANGING GEARS. SOMETIME I HAVE TO LET GO OF GAS TO GET IT TO DROP TO CHANGE GEARS.
