A good friend of mine had an old VW bug, No glass, rotted floor, but a fresh rebuilt engine. We we out in the field,( I was driving) buzzing around, and came across a large puddle (for lack of a better word) about 20 feet in diameter 12" deep. He looks and screams "NO WAY MAN". SO... I hammered on it and took off for the hole. As we hit the water, the water flies over the hood headed for the windshield(or lack there of). My buddy ducks towards the floor to get away from the water, just as the water and mud come up though the floor(or lack there of) and hit him right smack in the face. I laughed my ass off as he called me every name in the book. So ya, we do that kind of stuff here too. Good times.

Uh guilty as charged here also. :D
A buddy had an old Dodge Colt and I had a toyota Celica and every Saturday we'd hit the fields with the track set up and run em hard till the Colt would run out of oil. Fill it up with some used oil and hit it again.
Hours of entertainment. ;Sweet

Once, I got an ****** wagon, just for hauling it off. A buddy and I worked half a day, to get it running, then took it to the country, for a "test drive" It ran about 2 1/2 miles flat out, before it shucked a couple rods.

That is actually a sport 'round here. One of the Vol. Fire Dept.'s in the county I just moved out of sponsers a Demo Derby 3 or 4 times a summer as a fund raiser. Along with the derby, there mini motorcycle races, tug-o-war with trucks, daredevil jumping of cars (someone will die from that soon), & the Compact race. Only rule is it has to be a compact fwd car. Other than that...no rules. Races are 5 minutes long 'round the derby pit. ANYTHING goes. It's 5 minutes of pure carnage ;Sweet Anybody can enter any event, except the jumping. Never done the compacts, that is OUT OF CONTROL. Derby is alot of fun though.

We got ya beat. 18 cars on my friends farm and 450 miles on a 93 pathfinder. That thing did not want to die. Most cars only last a week or so though. We have had 3 grand marquis a couple oldsmobiles and even a chevy P-30 van with a 4bt cummins. Talk about good wheelies. We used to get the front tires 6 inches off the ground just by rockin the throttle in 2nd. Good to see we're not the only ones.

Does having 8 guys in a Ford Fairmont Wagon count? With an inline 6 and 5 spd going terrace jumping? Not little ones either. Most were close to 40ft tall. Have to love the hills in IA.
