Good job, that only happens when you're really going for it

As for the nickname, mangler seems suitable

You'll do that again with the 9 nich too though, it will just take a little more before it happens. Make sure you get a pro gearset, they tend to last/take more of that type of abuse then a street gear does. They're louder, but I think you're past that now.

I know buddy! Just having fun. The spool really isn't bad with street tires. Phil and P.J both drive their cars regularly on the street with a spool and don't mind them at all.

A spool is cool, only a fool who drools while dropping his tools on a stool after drinking fuel at school would think otherwise.

That was really goofy LOL.

My broken tru trac acts like a spool, the only annoying thing is tire wear at this point....
