Beat the living snot out of an 01 F-250 Super-Duty 4WD regular cab turbo-diesel!! The construction company filed for chapter 11 after we mounted $700 worth of tires! We had that truck for 2 or 3 months! Used it to get tires, run to lunch, and of course, joy ride!!! :twisted: Never thought a diesel would beat a ricer!!! Raced a Honda Prelude in it. He got me off the line, but once the turbo kicked in, I was GONE!!!!! He didn't know what hit him!! When they finally bounced back enough to pay their bill, I got her sideways coming around the shop!! Needless to say, those were no longer "new" tires! We put more than a few hard miles on them and the truck! But we had to, some of y'all know how diesels are. If you just start them up to move around the lot and shut them off again, they'll eventually get very hard to start! So we fixed that by some drives to keep the diesel happy!! I'm proud to report we kept it VERY healthy!!! 8)

I was test driving a customer's car on Thursday when I thought I saw a friend of mine so I followed him. Turns out it was my buddy with an 02 Subaru WRX!! So I figured the race was on even though I was in a bone stock 97 Toyota Corolla!! :oops: You know the rules, you've got to run with what you brought to the track!! So after a brutal defeat and a few laughs, I figured to redeem myself a few donuts and fishtailing the poor yoda while forcing the tires to smoke was a good idea!! :twisted: That poor car was out of breath when I got back from my "test drive!" But I guarantee that I sucessfully blew the carbon out of that engine :!:

when i was 16 i was given a 81 bonnevile just to get it out of the guys yard. it was the first car that i had ever had. i got it running and i put tranny fluid in it and took it around the block a few times. but every once and a while i'd go down to the open lot 3 blocks away and do cookies with it. this thing had like 170000 miles on it and it ran like a dog. i surprised the olds 307 was still running. one day when i was baja-ing it in my yard the tranny dipstick came out and i didnt know and all the tanny fluid leaked out and i teared up the tranny pretty bad. now that this had happed i got really pissed off and i took a crowbar to it. i got the keys taken by my stepdad untill my dad came and towed it away to my friends grandpas. now this is even a better story. this car sat at his grandpas for like a month before i went and saw it again. when we went out there we took some sledgehammers and crobars and all sorts of destrutionous tools. my friend used an axe to make a it a moon roof. i busted all the windows out. i also peeled the skins off of the doors. a couple weeks later we went back out to the car with a whole bunch of shotguns for all the guys. we went throuh like 500 shells with this thing. when we did this we pulled it down to the pond that was on his granpas land with a big ole ford front end load. i lifted the car like 20 ft in the air with this thing and dropped it numerous times. i tried to run it over with the loader but i didnt wanna tip it over. we also used the loader to crush the car down to like 2 feet tall. the really funny thing is, is that all the crap we put this car though it still rolled on the back axel. his grandpa got mad and had us take the car away so we had a guy tow it away. it was soo funny. this car once was like 4 or five tall, but we had managed to mke this thing 2 ft tall. it was funny watching the thing get towed away.

Thank you Ben. That dogone has put his opinion in some other threads and I didn't like anything he had to say. He made his point once but that wasn't enough for him I guess.
