Then line it up for the next hill!!! Nothing party's like a rental!! Good Times!!!

We did that in our younger days too. My friends aunt gave him a cherry 1967 Plymouth GTX with about 12K original miles. We beat that poor car into the ground. I don't think there was on straight piece of sheet metal left at the end, which is a shame now, but it was sure a lot of fun at the time! That 440 could really put out the power. It could lay a nice patch right up til the time it was driven into the crusher!

It is not only rough on the tranny, it destroys the questionable quality drive axels. The GT Turbos have Traction Control which limits wheel spinn, and puts the power to the road.

we got a buddy of mine to stand alongside the road as we jumped "thrill hill." It is an 8' tall bridge that is really steep. You get butterflies in your stomach going over it at the 25 mph limit. We got 12 feet of air going at our speed... Needless to say, scary!
