My best friend did this with his moms Gremlin in '77. It was a 6 cylinder auto, way underpowered, but he was determined to spin the tires.
They chirped for a second, then the engine broke free from all its mounts, and the fan went through the radiator.
He had some 'splaining' to do when he got home!
Knowing all the things me and my friends did when we were young, Im now thankfull everytime I see my son pull his car in the driveway in one piece.
[ Happy Thanksgiving everyone! ]
