I'd say "it still has a lot more in it" is more commonly used. At least from what I have heard. ****, I've said it.....haha. I've never said "that was at low boost" though. I don't run low boost at the track...

"on the/a small tire" <~ when speaking about going fast on a 24.5" slick

But as far as the poll goes "that was at low boost" is the winner.. It's in 60% of the Sigs on here lol.. Might have to check my sig now to see if i am a *

Oh another favorite here lately as your staring at a car slicked up, narrowed solid axle, glided, sheet metal skinned inside, and with enough tube inside it to double as a jungle gym. "Dude it still on pump gas... its a street car."
