I think about all the things we could have done, all the miracles we could have achieved, if we were all just a little bit better than it turns out we are.

My favorite thing to do when it snowed and was an empty parking lot, generally before school, was to just floor the truck, cut the wheel, and park wherever it stopped spinning.

I actually learned how to slide a car like that. My older brother would drive us out there to the parking lot (I was 13) and spin like hell.
Now this is a dangerous trick

Re: Random auto pics/videos
I take every car I drive out onto a snowy parking lot to find out how they react to emergency situations.. Done that since I was.. very young.
Re: Random auto pics/videos
A friend and I did this after he got his 96 V6 Firechicken. He'd never driven a RWD car before, let alone in snow.Frode wrote:I take every car I drive out onto a snowy parking lot to find out how they react to emergency situations.. Done that since I was.. Very young.
We got pulled over for sliding it around in an empty parking lot. If I remember correctly, the cops tagged him for careless driving or some shit. Roseville, MI cops are dicks

Re: Random auto pics/videos
Wow.. Cops around here are actually pretty nice. I've been pulled over twice for stuff that probably should have given me a ticket, but once I explained what happened (both very weird situations) I got away with warnings.
Re: Random auto pics/videos
Whenever you use forceful and overt verbal persuasion to try to convince others to see things your way, they're probably not listening to what you say, Instead they're looking for every error in you your logic and mistakes in your facts, all the while constructing counterarguments. Worse still, they don't merely believe you're wrong; they need you to be wrong in order to protect the status quo. And since the final judge exists in their own head, you lose every time. - The Influencer
Is the level of bullshit you have to go through to change things in a direction you want, less than than or equal than the level of current bullshit?

Ahhhhhhh! I remember when that car 1st came out. I think when car and driver (or somebody) came to test it the thing broke twice. One time was the trans. I believe it might have been the first car to have heads up display.

It had the same kind of CRT displays that high performance aircraft had.
The company owner had some kind of fascination with aircraft. I think the proper name for the company was Vector Aeromotive.

Re: Random auto pics/videos
Was talking to my buddy about his Talon (he's looking for a 6 speed rear) and he sent me the vid of what his car did in September since we haven't talked in awhile.
