  • stupid donuts...

    i NEVER do donuts or burn out. rarely! i just dont like beating on my car that much. Last time i did a donut the power steering pump died. i pinned it on the leak and the fact it had run dry for like 2 days. tonite? you guessed it! friend got a new paint job and did a donut. i had to partake cuz he's got a nissan and i got american muscle and what effing happens? POWERSTEERING GOES OUT! GODDAMNIT! two effing pumps in less than a year. only two donuts i've EVER done with the car. great... another 70 bucks down the flippin drain.

    *please spare the flaming... i did them both in vacant parking lots*

                by lock you mean all the way to the point where its blowing off? ( whine noise )

                    My LT1 has so much torque that it stipped the ps pump bolts. Try tap and dying those holes in that little space..

                      Says mister double post.

                      I have to admit that i've never done a donut in my car... mainly cuz i'm afraid that stuff like this will happen. Its my DD so i'd rather not destroy it on a cheap thrill.

                        If you're going around a million times like in that video that was posted I really don't feel bad for you. That's really hard on your car.

                        On the other hand, if it was only a few times, that's a little weird. I don't think I've ever done a full donut on dry pavement....wet pavement and snow on the other hand......

                              I do donuts alot, any chance i get.. i find it extremely entertaining :)

                              the only thing ive fuklled up is my rear sway bar and my LSD is kinda moody.

                              I did donuts for awhile, probably 15 or more in an empty parking lot at sea world...

                              right when i stopped i pulled over in the grass to let my tires cool down and two sea world security guards came hauling *** with flashing lights thru the parking lot, i bailed outa there so fast.. they tried following me for a few blocks but gave up..

                              Probably thought i had a V8
