Driving Your Car

[senna_T]

Bit off topic but who's done a good burnout in a siblings car and gotten away with it?

LOL, I had to change my GF's dads brakes last night, so I got him to drop it off at the dealership and I took it home from there. On the way home I raced a v8 calais (driving a rapid GT with black stripes gets their attention) and when I snapped second it jumped half a meter to the left and laid black lines! (its edited - 286rwkw) Her dad loves it when I tell him, he's more of a hoon than I am! Oh, and before anyone comments on a GT's ability to break traction in 2nd, the car wears 20's with cheap ling long tyres, not the best for grip at the best of times!

I had to move my sisters POS lancer the other night (with XR badges all over it ), dump it at 5k and she lights the fronts up pretty good torque steering allover the road.

She wasn't to impressed when I told her what the smell in her car was from. Hehe

I lit up the rears in my brothers 'fully sik minitruck' the other day, not bad for a single spinner. also tested out my girlfriends mazda 6 wheel spinning capabilities the day after she put brand new 18's on it, she wasnt impressed.

I took my old man's LS1 VT Slugsport around the block once when I was 17. It left with 95% tread and came back with the insides at about 50%. The IRS bogged the rears in. I did 3 massive patches within about 700m, and he didn't have a clue coz it didn't even tick over 1km. The tyres still lasted quite a while, and I remember him telling me how he stumbled across the rears on the canvas about a year later lol

The last quality burnout I did was in my Brother's old 200SX.

Did the whole street gutter to gutter playing on the brake. Would've been about a 400 metre burnout (long street) before I was off the brake, and had palmed it into 3rd gear.

I had a mate jump in another mates STi rex on the track at Goulburn. He never drove the car in his life and was driving it a 10/10ths on his first lap, safe to say he ended up on the grass, crap all under the car. Same guy borrowed another mates GEN3 SS, this time on the street, first drive he ended up through someones fence. I wont let him drive it the T, noway.

However, Our T's are very drivable, they make similar if not more power to the old big muscle cars with noise, bonnet scoops and very bad manners etc etc. But Drive them off boost and they are very well mannered. Your granny could drive it, sudden jerks of throttle wont send them sideways (turbo lag).

My Mrs drives mine all the time, very sensibly. It definately comes down to who you let drive it..
