Ok, when my stock tires get close to worn down, I'll go raid a MacDonald's, find a parking lot, and try this!

I hear ya. The smell of burnt plastic and rubber...that will be REAL toxic. "Sorry we don't have any trays today. Someone robbed them all to do donuts (we love to see you smile)."
too funny.

I have a 95 subaru legacy 5spd (AWD), and i can do doughnuts absolutely fine. I think I threw it out of alignment, though, and I was wondering how i could keep from doing this.

ummmm, don't do donuts

Seriously, though, if you get the car sideways for a length of time, you're going to throw it out of alignment. Everything has its cost.

god damn... you people who do burns and donuts all the time must have buttloads of money to throw around, cause it definitely isn't cheap on auto maintenance to be doing those things. Sure I've done a few burns in my camaro, but I don't go looking for a parking lot to freaking do donuts all night!! shiet! and I definitely don't take FWD cars to go and hit the McD-trays.. lol.

i will admit though that I love the feeling of rwd cars especially taking curves like a biatch, and having a little bit of rear end swinging out action can never hurt (if you know how to control it)..

Lightbulb TraySliding

I have a few tray sliding videos worth checking out, we did them in my stealth, it's a piece of **** but a lot funner than rear-wheel drive doughnuts. The vids are not on the net though, just email me and I can send them to you. and if anyone wants to host them that would be kick *** 2.
