The town car I tried doin a burnout in Hawaii with wouldn't let me do one for more than 2 or 3 seconds before stopping wheel spin. Here is my rental doin a burnout. :)

[hey gotbo0st]

cant watch the burnout movie, you and your damn mac's

[Chris]

Just download quicktime

[hey gotbo0st]

eh is it worth it? its a lincoln towncar doing a burnout
seen one burnout, seen them all

[diablesse]

^^^^hahahaha
and it's not even a cool car or anything

[Chris]

Suit yourself. I am greatly amused that it's a fucking lincoln doing a burnout. It was also fun cruising at the speed limiter (108) and having cars move out of the way.

[diablesse]

they probably thought you were a cop creeping up on them. I do the same thing, then I get irrate once the car passes and I realize it's a little old lady with a blue fro.

[Chris]

I've never sees any bluehairs passing me, ever! Of course they thought i was a cop ;) It was funny to run up on cars driving quickly, and watch them discretely slow down.

There is a place near me that sells old cop cars, refurbished. Would be fun to pick one up cheap.

Reason #242 why it's not a good idea to buy a 'well maintained' ex-rental car.

Personally I have beaten the shit out of each and every one of my rentals.

[Chris]

At no point was it ever a good idea to buy an ex-rental car. Why do you think that shows up in a carfax? :) I'd buy the lincoln for under ~$3k, though. If I could remove teh speed governor. I'd also run some ridiculous exhaust.

[White Out]

I feel bad for whomever buys a vehicle that I have previously rented.

Nice sparks.

Nick

[pandaspeed]

yeah magnesium rim + high rpm + concrete = fireworks

[Chris]

That would be an expensive fireworks show. The sparks in this case are from a nail ;)

[pandaspeed]

I wonder how he drove it home, after he picked up that nail, even if it didn't go flat the sparks whould be a cop magnent

[Chris]

The nail isn't going to spark unless the wheel is spinning....

[pandaspeed]

yes spinning as in when the bike is in motion as in the trip back from alicias house to his.

[Chris]

No, spinning as it the wheel is spinning, yet the bike is stationary. A nail in a tire does not spark while rotating normally. I think he was already home.

[pandaspeed]

oh okay my bad

[Gixxer2k3]

That would be an expensive fireworks show. The sparks in this case are from a nail ;)

yeah, that is the only reason why I did that burnout. I need my tire to do other shit like go fast

[Gixxer2k4]

Believe it or not, those giant ryder trucks that you can flip the entire cab forward....... you can actually drive them around like that!

[hey gotbo0st]

ive never seen rubber melt on grass

[DTM]

can those things burn out on the street?

[BarretM3]

It will, but you have to get it started on something slick or you'll never get them to start spinning. Once hey are going though, you can keep 'em spinning pretty easily.
