hey its winter and there is alot of snow outside. i as bored so was driving and then pushing in my push brake to slide the car around in a open parking lot. i was wondering if i could mess my car up by doing that.

Hmmm well if you lose control and hit something the answer is yes, you can mess up your car. BTW hand e-brakes are more fun for that. Not that I do that to mine though. (cough) rental (cough)

No, just keep up at it. Something good will come out of it.

That sets an example of why you shouldn't keep doing it.

Do you do it because you can not do anything meaningful?

Yes. And "slideing" is spelled "sliding."

hehe

ya btw make sure you slide in open area me and a friend were sliding and his civic went to far and he poped his tire... took us and hour to get it up his drive way... his steely was spinning inside his tire and the other tire didnt have any power since all the power was going to the popped tire

I love the snow you don't know how to power slide until you try it in a subi. I mean you really have to try to loose control.

So your youtube videos of you trying to do a speed run on the highway in a 626 are meaningful?

It shouldn't **** anything up. Stock tires, 65 series, you could possibly break the bead if you hit a dry spot but thats about all I can think of. I do it when the urge hits me. Same as high speed runs, lol. Destroyed a 1.8t vw on the highway the other day it was good fun gettin up there round 120 on the speedo, avoiding some semis, all good fun but i try to keep it to once or twice a year lol. Anyone else hate the masked vulgarity on this site? How many little kids own a Lexus honestly?

what speed runs?

you can mess up your rear tires a little,

. i used to practice sliding or winter driving in mall parking lots. if you lock up the rears and also let them slide, you will slightly damage the rears, depending how long you do it.

trust me but it is fun
