noob2soob Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Ever get the urge where they just want to hop in their car and take it out to a curvy road and just drive your heart out? Feeling the grip break free on the back for a slight second when you drop down to second halfway through a left hand turn and not a moment later feel the front 2wd (or awd/4wd for some) throw your back end back in line to give you a powerful exit as you leave the turn only to enter a sharper right hand turn in which you feel the back end whip around with the sound of squealing tires as you drift around the turn and exit the turn with the same powerful exit as before with a big grin or your face? Just imagine the scream of the engine and the sqeal of the tires with pull from the torque as the car throws you back in the seat... Know what i mean? Man i love driving Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobcob Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Hmmm... more like the clatter of gravel on the underbody as I throw the Brat around another corner in a flurry of 73hp powersliding! Yeah... I know what ya mean! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numbchux Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 yes, I love to go out driving. but my car really doesn't like sliding on pavement. pretty much all traction.......of course, I wouldn't really call that a bad thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

subyrally Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 i just got back from killing an hour in the hills. had to take the gf to work at 1, it was alittle before 12 and ther is nothing else to do in my town, lol. about half of the drive, we call em "mountain runs", is on gravel, the rest is tight and twisty tarmac and ends with about 10 miles on the expressway goming back into the city.

noob2soob Posted April 25, 2008 Author Share Posted April 25, 2008 Wow, I'm gonna come visit you, i have one small winding trail by me that Ive found, and yeah numb most of the time it's all traction for me, but i love to push it and force a give way i wish my DL was awd ah well, nothin like feelin fast in a small car and knowin you can take that 70 degree turn at close to 50 maybe higher Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newsoobdude Posted April 25, 2008 Share Posted April 25, 2008 Driving is fun. Thankfully I live in a small town and have lots of nice twisty roads with elevation changes and all the goodies to race up and down:headbang: . Only down side is I have as much law enforcement in the 33k population county as in LA:eek: , so cannot really fly like I want to. If I get the need for speed bug, I wish I was back in LA where you CAN fly around and not have to watch your rear view for the cops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spokanesoob Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 im totaly about the clatter of gravel being thrown into the wheel wells. its one of the coolest feelings when you go sideways around a tight corner at 55mph on a gravel road. oh and when you can see behind you because of all the dust you make Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
merkatroid Posted April 26, 2008 Share Posted April 26, 2008 The sound of a large turbo coming on boost closely followed by a open wastegate does it for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
