Racing against sports cars on twisty roads in the Colorado mountains driving a 4 door Studebaker was fun too! (Almost always won )

Standing on the seat and driving with 1 foot in the wheel while pulling the convertible top shut at about 50-60 MPH in a sudden hail storm may have been borderline though.

Drag racing into a one lane bridge to see who backed off may have been just into Psycho too. (Only did that two or three times a weekend for a couple of years so it may not count)

But I don't remember ever doing anything stupid.

DAMN... and how did you get 100 feet airtime? wtF?!

stupid shit..well since i live in the middle of fucking tim-buck-too when we get bored we drive like asses.
-raced a friends mini van up to about 100mph or so.
-covered a 1 hour trip in 28minutes.
-jumped the 318 at 85mph coming down a moutain pass
-raced numerous cars on my way down to LA with the 330
-took a 1996 850 glt volvo sledding in a ski parks parking lot. Got the tires spinning at 90mph in the ice. reverse 180's and what not
-E-brakes..need i say more
-head out the sunroof at 75mph
-82mph in a 25 zone(almost got a ticket from some rent a cops)
-went in the out at a bowling alley parking lot and almost hit a light pole cause i lost control

I got air for like 20 feet on some backraods doing about 95, I know they were off the ground because the tires chirped like crazy when I landed, and the rpm's went up.

[brien4787]

e-break turning while at work parking cars, or spinning the tires of cars as the hotel guests are just walking into the hotel.

wild rivers parking lot when it rains hard..... umm, its a fucking huge parking lot...wet ground... you know what i did...

driving with friends in general... depending who else is driving, it can get almost scary sometimes...
fishtail onto my street

going to the limiter of my car with friends in it.

taking my favorite local "twisties" while driving brit-style (on thw wrong side of the road) at night. i was on edge the whole time. the only point where i got back on my side was during a rather fast blind corner.

Car surfing is easier on a van, more space to move around. try doing it on the rollbars of a lifted jeep. Then come talk to me.
