Shot from one curb toward the rear of my 70 442 W-30 convertible, EASILY 200 yards across the entire lot to the other side, both tires smoking, had to hit the brakes to avoid the far end or it could have kept going. A blueprinted Olds 455 is about as good as it gets. My MA license plate at the time? BEAT-ME
No one ever did. Although one time a girl asked, almost innocently, "does that mean, as in, 'off'?"
True story, I swear. | | |

Bikes are easy, just hold the front brake and drop out clutch lever, can you spin doughnuts with feet on the pegs?I wanna see a photo of a Stovebolt powered truck filling the fenders with tire smoke.I had a photo of a Art Deco 1-1/2 ton dually truck smoking the tires.It is powered by a supercharged 302 GMC, owned by an Inliner guy, dam lost the photo. | | |

Unfortunately he did it in the parking area under his apartment building. He triggered the smokealarms which summoned the Seattle Fire Department, Engine 41 to be exact. They reported that he got a ticket, but didn't say what he was cited for.

I laughed so hard one day when I read the police log in the paper and read a couple of breaking traction citations. I used to work at New England Dragway- nothing like a greasy cheeseburger, a flat coke and lots of tiresmoke.  | | |

Burnout from under the shed, by the end of house, up the asphalt to the road..... backed it back under the shed and did it again, just for fun. Decide to let the smoke clear and WOW standing right in front of me was the smoke god..... my wifey! Close call as I didn't know if the insurance was paid up. Costly to replace parts on a 37  | | |
