It's pouring here. I'm gonna see how slow I can go while whipping the back end out. I'm guessing under 10mph will do it. Someone remind me to buy 275's....

I think I have only kicked the rear out twice, just to kinda get an idea of what it would take. VDC has been on 99.99% of the time lol.


Half the car has been waxed with Griots Best of Show liquid wax. I decided to skip the sealant and try out some of the goodies I bought recently

Had the same thing happen to me about 8 or so years ago, little f*cker took out most of the block, they had to bring a part in & we all stood around for about 3 hours waiting for power to come back on.

Edit: Wow I thought f*cker would have been swear filtered.
