...went for a drink at a local pub (the Eastbo lot will know which pub ), and on leaving, was slightly concerned to find three car loads of "lax power" types surveying the scene. Fortunately they seemed like a decent bunch, and asked if I wanted to swop my car for their 3. I said whilst it was a generous offer, I'd stick to mine !

On starting the car, I was asked to "spin it" by one of the young ladies there...to which I replied, "but it's 4wd" - glum face, and I added "but how about a power slide ?",.....I really can't belive I did this !! So yep, I provided the entertainment with a full power drift out of the car park to cheers and claps.

Forgive me father, for I have sinned.......

FOR SALE:- one prized and loved Scoob.

WANTED:- Nova with full body kit, 19" alloys, loads of ICE and neons.

www.maxpower.com.

They're easily impressed there. Just show them your "uprated" ciggy lighters and their eyes will light up.

Why not? I have a 4WD car myself.

I take it you meant you did not have enough space on the parking lot? Or perhaps you dont spin your car because it eats tyres? Or do you think it cant be done? I was a little confused there, that's all...

Oi mister at 17 the noise that blow off valves make didn't impress me I was more interested on whether it improved the performance

It is of course eminently possible to spin all 4 wheels in an AWD I was doing it on Sunday

What Nova cru have trouble in doing is spinning the car 360 on the spot within its own length - doing a donut but without the hole - now that is cool
