Same channel... with a burn out as this guy pulls out into the street in a "2DR Chevy Box" at about 1:00... and he makes somebody in a little compact slam on brakes to keep from rearending him... as a bonus, it sounds like solid lifters...

Sadly, I've already seen a lot of this crapola here in the Valley of the Sun, though without the "spinnaz" as yet. 80's sedans worth about $300 with over $10k of "investment" in the wheels. Lots of the wheel places here offer good terms on financing, too.

Think of the poor traction control & stability chip.

The "ghetto hoopties" make me physically ill... I see (and hear) them a lot around here. You can hear the "boom boom boom" before you can see the monstrosities...

What gets me is the utter POS cars with cracked windshields, bumpers falling off, rust holes, bondo, no side mirrors... sporting a big-ass shiny pair of wheels.
