Koz I didm't even think to call you. My bad. I drifted last night and tonight with between 2 and 4 other cars. Twas awesome. I care about my tires too much right now to do it dry. When I get my snow tires/rims I may, but I doubt it. When I get my nice tires for my 17" wheels next summer there will definitely be no more drifting/burnouts...

lol.. ok all this talk about mom's and driving not a snow story but kinda funny.

I had a 95 Z28 some years ago and droped a 383 stroker motor in it and a lot of other work and turned out 386rwhp. my mom wanted to go to her office really quick and since my car was blocking the driveway she asked if she could take it. I said go ahead but DON'T get on the gas hard ever. 5 mins later she calls and refued to drive the car back home! she said she gave it gas to pass a car and it downshifted, spun the tires and scared the crap out of her!! lol.. since then I have had a 98 LS1, 95 3.4l v6, and currently an 01 Z28 and she has refused to drive all of them! She won't even move them out of the driveway.. lol!

on a side note I miss that 95 Z28. it was totaled by a drunk that t-boned it as mach 10 while it was parked in the street at the townhouse I used to have.

1:1.. 01 Z28 Camaro A4 Sure.. its stock.

rocco i must disagree with you on this statement! i think fwd cars are more fun to do donuts in because in reverse the driver is spinning around in a big circle! in rwd cars the driver is basically stationary! also i took out my explorer today(just bought) it's got the 4.0 short block with a 5 speed, holy blue balls batman!! this thing hauls. my other explorer had the 4.0 sohc in it and doesn't even hold a candle to this thing!

Doing donuts with a FWD car in reverse is funny looking. Way more in a RWD car, especially if you get the right steering and gas input. You can just keeping spinning and spinning... I had some fun times in my mustangs...

THAT, is why I drive this


And just put these on it this summer



Although this one didn't do half bad with good tires on it either, I could even slide it without using the parking brake (not that I could if I wanted to though.................)

reason I got my truck was because of that button. I actually had to use it to get to the races yesterday climbing those steep snow hill roads.
