Astina burnouts

Hahaha, with all this wet weather, me being me I felt like doing something dumb in my little doorstop. At a stop sign, held the handbrake up, stomped the brake - then floored the accelerator and dropped the brake.

My granny spec auto doorstop actually lost traction and spun like a little bitch. Hell yeah I was so damn proud, then just thought to my self... thats so weak hahahah, it will only spin in the wet.

It was good to smell rubber of the little fella anyway, put a grin on my face

1 time and I never live it down! Just for the record, I never said using the auto in that way would be good for the car. How much fun it can be when the 'box doesn't break is another matter

I'm yet to see an NA Astina burnout bigger than the one Andy and I did in the mountains where people actually thought there was a bushfire because of it.

There is a video of it too, with 47secs of tyre screech in the distance, and then thick white smoke wofting down into the valley on the approach to there area where we did it. Can even see where I went into second gear for a little bit.
