    The Michelin Pilot Super Sports I run aren't any good under 32 degrees. Max performance summer tires.

    How good are they at jumping though?

      I've seen that before. Funny shit.
      Speaking of jumping. I loaned my 72 Blazer to my boss to go wheeling knowing that he was prone to driving borrowed vehicles like he stole them. When he brought it back all 4 rims were bent and it had no oil pressure.The dude that went with him said everything was cool until he saw some other guys jumping their two wheel drive pick ups. He figured 4 wheel drives were sturdier and jumped the blazer a couple times. Instead of paying for the repairs he traded me a car and cash for it. The legal owner of the car went with me to the DMV, filled out lost title paperwork and I registered it no problem. The next day I found out my boss had traded it in on a used van then repoed it after they repoed the van. I decided I'd better sell it before the real owner found out I had it. In the end I turned a small profit but it wasn't worth the hassle or the sleep I lost thinking I might get busted for stealing the car from the car lot.

        I fucking nearly died driving with Z-rated summer tires in a snow fall. I just assumed they were all seasons...

          Did you ask him if he likes his VW Toureg?

            When the rain really comes down here you see all kinds of sports cars along the sides of the road in the bushes or in a ditch that hydroplaned off the interstate because they had high speed rated tires that are worthless in the rain and snow.

              I almost went into a graveyard, which might have cut out the middleman....

                I got a ticket for exhibition of speed, doing a burnout on a dead end street in front of a cemetery the day after I got my driver's license. The same cop pulled me over earlier and gave me a warning because I squealed my tires pulling away from a stop sign. I'm sure he knew I was lying when I claimed it was unintentional but he cut me some slack anyway. He must have been following me for at least a half hour before I figured the coast was clear and pulled down that dead end street.

                      And some feel the internal combustion engine should go away! Skip to 1:25 of this first video, and see what it's like to stand near a 10,000 HP fire fucking breathing Hemi V8. If that doesn't give you a boner, you ain't a man! FACT!



                      Go to the 2:40 mark of this one if you want to get right to ferocity of the blip of the throttle.

                        The smell of burning Nitro is like nothing else and the sounds/feeling, well if anyone hasn't been right next to them, you must experience it at least once in a lifetime!

                        Until I got a "taste" for it, breathing in the fumes would make me feel like I was suffocating and I'd run away. I had to find a way to stomach it because I wanted to be right there watching as they were warming them up, seating the clutch, etc.

                        Now, I go right up to the front of the line in the pits and just stand there while they're running, plugging my ears of course. It cracks me up every time when they finish and I turn around to find I'm usually the only "fan" left there right on top the rope line without a gas mask.

                          I think I saw FORD and NickDickless getting the fuck out of there, in that first video! They thought they were there to hear the whine of a battery powered weedeater.

                              We both know I spend more time in the garage getting my hands dirty, than you've ever dreamed of. That's why I have man hands, and you have soft feminine hands, with manicured nails.

                                They used to run the Jet Car Finals at the local drags in my hometown. We were 20 feet or so behind the staging area about even with the bleach box right next to the track behind a short chain link fence. Two Jet cars were staging. I just noticed everyone else had moved away from the fence and started moving myself but it was too late. The blast was just enough to burn all the hair off my legs. Good thing it was only staging. The blast from the jet engines at launch would probably set you on fire.
