He must have had the "HO" option. :-)



Boy, now that's a knee-slapper, W'hine.

My Aero Willys had a lovely back seat, in which it was easy to get laid.
That, to a high school sophomore, was a tad more interesting than spinning
tires on pavement. Hell, it's more interesting to me now.

Still trying, huh?

Ouch... :)

Absolutely...and succeeding. I'd rather get laid than spin the tires on
my cars...then...and now.

I have never known a 60 yr old man who talked about his high school
sexual escapades. That is something most kids grew out of by the time
they got to college. I would assume Harry graduated HS a virgin.

Those were the days. Well at least you have your memories.

I'm not sure I "get" the photo...are you referring to the tire marks?
I could do that with my 65 hp, 1953 Aero-Willys and, in fact,
frequently did, in first and second gear, but not third gear.

Thought you were referring to the ability to lay down a strip of rubber
from the tires. About every stick shift I drove could do that, and so
could a few auto transmission cars.



The Porsche can't.

Did you guys see the tv program on 'drift racing' a couple days ago?
Now that seems like a waste of tires. Appears to be popular in Japan.

That's one form of auto racing that I've never understood.

Yeah, I am sure you are the type who remembers spinning your wheels.
You're still doing it.

I think it started in the urban areas. It does not take a lot of
equipment, room, or even a sanction. Just a parking lot and a crowd of
spectators. Just like a basketball court. Hell, you can play on a half
court. Now Baseball and Golf don't do quite as well in the city...

It's the logical step up for 10-year-olds who tire of racing motorcycles
on dirt tracks.

This thread, from about 8:30 this morning, sure resembles Chuck's Island.
