Just watched "Jay Leno's Garage" on tv, which began with he and Tim Allen doing dueling doughnuts in new Hellcats. Dang, I need to do a burnout with my new 451!

Jay Leno is a tool

yes,especially when you swap out a 323 gear and toss the gear in the trunk of your 340 duster and then do donuts.
it tends to reshape the body lines by the trunk area.
if you ever bought a 72 blue 340 duster with the oddest bumps in the trunk,now you know why

you should really watch his Garage shows.
i never liked him as a comedian,but his classic car shows and the fact that he Saves some of the rarest AND non rarest cars really makes me like him.
hes a down to earth kinda guy.

I was wondering -- is this at all bad for your car?

Only if you hit a pole...

Short story.

I was doing donuts in the dirst with a 1974 Regal 455auto.

The transmission fused forward and reverse gears and the car wouldn't move after that.

it felt like it wanted to go forward and backward at the same time.

That was the last donut I did, and the was around 1993.

True, but the donuts helped it along.

It's only bad for your image, if you like to be seen as an adult.

I would like him more if he used his position to influence the idiot politicians to our side of matters. He makes enough money to circumvent the system for his own benefit.

Haha.... Burnouts Bad???? There's nothing I enjoy more than getting completely sideways while making a turn, it may be hard on the car but it sure puts a smile on my face and that's all that matters!

This has me thinking I really need to get some shots of some sidways action?

Come on guys, since when is having fun in a classic Mopar bad for your image? What's bad for your image is when you attempt to but your car won't do it!

 

[Kern Dog]

Don't be a queer. Peeling out, getting sideways, smoking the tires on the street? That **** is fun. If you think that stuff is immature, surrender your MAN card and go back to watching "Dancing with the Stars".
