Burnout!
Me and my burnout! I think it is decent, what do you think?
P.S. I tightened my torsion bolts just tonight, sorry but no pics of that.

I don't lol, but it was a little wet there... What size engine is yours?

Edit: Probably because it is a 2.5L

Lol seriously? Ha, in my 2.5L with BFG Radial T/A's, I could roll into 3rd gear once I got them moving. I did it twice. This was with 3.73 gears on a slick asphalt road on a hot summer day.

I used to love powerbraking with my 98 2.5L. I don't run it hard like that anymore.
