Re: Parking Brake only locks rear wheels? ..or.. burnout competition :)

["John Van Vuren" <veedublu@prod.net>]

lets see
reasons to do burnouts in a street car
1) your rubber wont really care all that much (tires are cheap)
2) your CV joints have seen more stress during everyday driving
4) Ill laugh if the WD40 goes up...   it won't...
5) your hurting your car man!    bah humbug...  why do we have these cars?
to have fun!!
6) find some snow... snow is for pussies, real men play on dry pavement (or
mud, depending on the toy)

beater cars...  this is one of a series of photos, most of which the car
wasn't even visible.  Man I loved that car...  never turned down a race, and
never lost!

Go have fun, take a few pictures, screw the doomsayers!!  Hahah
