I wouldn't say it's un-drivable, but it needs an adjustment in driving style. There's not much torque up to 4000rpm. Pulling off you need to leave a gap to the car in front else you keep launching into the back of them and you have to keep it in the right rev range, so there's no tootling about. In hindsight I shouldn't have used the 649 for general road use and when something else breaks due to the constant high rev abuse I will look to change it.
