  2. In and effort to reduce the spam on the site, several years ago I had went to a program where I manually approve each and every new registration. This approval gives you full access to the site, to pictures, and to post, among other things. To be able to enjoy the full potential of the board for you, you need to be fully registered.. and that's easy.. Just send an email to me at jim@trishieldperformance.com and I will verify your registration. This policy will remain in effect indefinitely, as it has completely eliminated the bad actors from our site, who would spam and hack it, once they gained access. Thanks JW

    This is not a kill story, but it's funny...........today I'm standing in the driveway talking to my neighbor, when two young guys pull up along the side of the road in their late model Mustang GT. Chrome oversize wheels, nice paint job, you know.

    Well, he applies the brakes, floors it, in an attempt to light up the tires..........motor sounded really good, the car lifted up a little, now I'm really diggin this right......I thought it would really be cool to watch. I couldn't believe it, to my dissappointment, the tires barely chirped and the thing took off. How embarassing, and his girlfreind was sitting in the other seat! You'd think a high performance car like that could at least light 'em up a little. Maybe his tranny was slipping?:laugh:

    GSXMEN Got Jesus?

    Although the Mustang GT is woefully underpowered....the problem in this case is the driver not knowing how to properly light 'em up.:Dou:

    Most any car can spin the tires....if done right!!:Brow: :grin:

    My brother used to work as the head recon man at a local used car lot. These guys were always moving cars around. Boys being boys.......one thing always leads to another.:Brow: They used to dare him to do a burnout on the car they least expected to be able to. (Like that took much arm twisting).:laugh:

    So...he'd take whatever underpowered 4 banger they picked out, take it out and smoke the tires!!:3gears: Where there's a will...there's a way!!:TU:

    I guess I shouldn't mention the time there was a GN in the lot!!!:shock: :Brow: Or a Vette.....or......:TU: :TU:

    Maybe "it's not supposed to spin the tires, it's supposed to just take off". lol
