Inane....insane....you put a lot of unnecessary stress and strain on parts other than the tires.

Ditto. With my luck I would have tagged that curb near the end.

Yup It was all in first gear tried to keep it around 4-5k rpm. It wasen't that much strain on parts since their was alot of debree which made the car slip and slide a lot easier /more . And I Didn't smash the pedal a whole lot, just gave it blips to redirect the car where I wanted it to go.

It sure as heck is fun !

Assuming nothing bad was or is now with the car, this probably gave him a lot of knowledge for some bad day....teaching. So, it is in some ways a valuable thing in my mind. Looks like a lot of fun too. My streets are too small for my talent pool though. :-) (I'd slam the curb).

You´re not going to tell me the top of the brand Porsche car can´t stand just a few donuts from time to time.
Ok, it puts stress in some parts but I believe they were buid to suport this kind of stress from time to time.

First sorry for bringing back and old post but i just got back from europe.

Yes I agree with you whole heartly. If this car is intended for the track which imo puts tons of more stress on parts, then this should be a breeze. I think my car has a whole lot of a bigger workout when its at the track then when i did that . IMO

Hey, if you don't have the $ to play, its better not to play and stay in the sidelines. I know many pp with your personality, and their cars are in the garage gathering dust, while im out there enjoying life to the fullest and enjoying my car. At the end of the day, when you die, your not taking anything with you your just leaving memories for others behind

It is always great exploring the limits of the rubber doing stuff like this, so you know what to expect at high speed turns at the track or on and off ramps.. or mtn roads I personaly go to mtn roads at 2-3 am during winter when everyone is at home sleeping or to scared to go drive in the back roads because its raining....boyy is it fun just getting that tail out at over 100mph in the narrow backroads!
My moto: Drive. Fear. Nothing. Passion




Happy thanksgiving everyone

the only thing being stressed is the tires, lack of traction doesnt put stress on anything..............traction is what breaks parts
