so i think i should turn this into a hardcore activities thread. so tonight my friend and i were car surfing at 70mph. ya its was good stuff. then i decided i could jump off a car at 15mph. well that didnt work out too well. thought i was just going to land fine. ended up landing and flying forward onto the ground. you know that sound you get when your sanding a piece of wood, thats what my skin made against the concrete. i have a huge scrape all down my elbow, many cuts on my hands and fingers, and some scrapes on my knee that i didnt even know that i got. i couldnt figure out why my pants were wet until i reached in to find my contact case broken in half and my phone in pieces! ya it was pretty sweet and i would have done it without hesitation again. ya maybe im crazy, but ya.

curt_04 · 05-23-2007, 07:08 AM

tigmaster · 05-23-2007, 08:21 AM

well me and my friend eith lay or stand on top of my friends car and hold onto the sunroof. we then go around turns and stuff and see if you can stay on.

I used to do something like that in my old Ford Ranger. I would tie a rope to each side of the bed up close to the cab and then my buddies would take turns standing in the bed just using the rope to hold on while I would try to throw them around. One time I slammed the brakes and the next thing I know my buddy is sitting on my hood looking back at me. Fun stuff. We called it riding the bull because you could only use one hand.

thats awesome, we also do the whole cruise control thing that apparently is so dangerous and is always on the news and people are always doing reports on. idk, i look doing crazy stuff with my car and im good at it too. gather round and ill tell a few stories that are an everyday occurence. so the other day i was comming home from work and these random girls kept brake checking me even though i wasnt close to them. it was getting real annoying and i figured only a little hardcority would solve the problem. so i threw her down into 2nd and passed them. then i proceeded to completely hook my car sideways so that i was looking at them through my passenger side window and flipped them off and then hit it back 90 degrees to be going straight. sounds easy huh, well i pretty much grab and pull everything i got and somehow i made time to flip them off. process goes as is, turn right, clutch, ebrake, brakes, turn back, release brakes, 2nd gear, clutch in and sping the wheels, flip off, release ebrake, 3rd. ya it must look pretty crazy with me just pressing everything i have. ya and i didnt think twice about that. also drifting if basically how i drive, most of my drifts look like something out of fast and furious, i have had people stare at me as my car is point at their car except im going almost the opposite direction. ya Jimmyhoffa is a pro at this too. also, theres more. when snow comes, well i have this little trick where i can drive my car sideways down the road. i look out of the passengers window and just drive it down the road sideways. me and Jimmyhoffa also have the best game of who can get on the biggest stuff, even though i have a car. we will just be sitting at a stoplight and one of us will just drive up onto a median or something. so that reminded me of this on time where i turned my car completely around while stopped at an intersection and was facing Jimmyhoffa's truck. ya, i have so many many many more driving stories. me and Jimmyhoffa are pretty much amazing at whatever motorpowered device it is we use, we just figure thats how it is supposed to be. so one more story. so this guy was tailing me on the highway, and i gave him the old brake tap and the squirt from the windshield washers, but he just didnt move. so i proceeded to hook my car sideways on the highway and he didnt even move as the huge smoke cloud enveloped his car. so ya, i swear im a good driver, never hit anyone and never really crashed, once hooked my car into a ditch and couldnt stop laughing about it. 20 minutes later i was out driving again. really really im a safe driver. also from now on when you race someone, instead of flashing your blinkers or something like that when you beat them, give em the door, just open your door. lol wow i probally sound like a bad kid, i just got a little TP in me

to be young again... LOL

When I lived in Cali. there was this one turn on the freeway that I could get my old P.O.S. front wheel drive Subaru sideways around. So this one day I am on the outside lane (slow lane) taking this big left hander and some guys comes up to pass in the fast lane and I throw it sideways and cruise the whole corner staring at him straight thru my windshield looking into his passenger side window. He is staring at me jaw dropped then he slows down and lets me go by.

Another one of my favorite tricks was doing off-road recoveries at about 50 - 60 mph. So you are cruising at about 50 or 60 and you find a good sized dirt shoulder and you ease over into the dirt and throw it sideways and just cruise like that for a good ways (sometimes up to 100 yards). This is even more fun when someone is coming in the opposite direction or when someone is tailgating you.

JThompson · 05-23-2007, 11:53 AM

Maybe I never got to have this fun because i lost my license to reckless driving at such a young age.

Wopstar · 05-23-2007, 12:20 PM

I lost mine due to unpaid tickets. Stopped me for a while but not long!

Memories of things that I would never do again. It is amazing what age does!
