My car is currently in the shop getting my supercharger installed. I should have it back this Friday In the mean time I rented a Ford Mustang v6 converible. I really miss my car. The automatic tranny on those things suck so bad! Its a real POS. And the suspension is so loose. I have be doing a lot of burnouts in it though to have some fun. Yesterday I started Roasting my tires about 10 Seconds before the light turned green and then laid rubber across the entire intersection I filled the whole intersection up with white smoke. Three blocks down the road I look in the rear view and there was still a cloud of smoke. I have done this about 5 times all around my city yesterday. Today when I was driving around I saw my rubber marks all over the place.. its pretty funny. People must have thought I was a lunatic and they probably thought I was driving my stang like I thought I was the shnit. I was just having some fun... taking advantage of things I would never do in my car. By the time I turn the car back the rear tires will be pretty melted. haha. You got to love rental cars
