fun in the rain

In california we're being hit by a pretty big rainstorm.
well my buddies and I decided to use the nasty weather to our advantage
I went off to a nearby Mcdonalds to borrow some trays
guess what we did?
Tray sliding/drifting!
lol it was great, we only had a few trays and only one car went for it. (89 accord)
got drenched and cold but was well worth it

One thing I noticed, was the trays get used up too fast. Are there any other things we could use to prolong the fun?

Also our ebrakes lock up one wheel in the front one wheel in the back I remember hearing? this means we can't do tray slides? Im probably not gonna do it, too worried about my car, but just curious.

thanks for listening

BTW got a quick vid

fun in the rain

The E-Brake myth is wrong. Anyone who was worked on their car up in the air knows that in order to torque the rear wheels you have to put the e-brake on, which holds BOTH wheels. Also, working on the front end, unless the tranny is in gear the wheels are going to spin fairly freely. Just shedding some light....

I wanted to have fun with my car today since it was raining. I had an entire playground to use! But I decided to play it safe. Don't want any of the teachers or the principal thinking I've lost my mind. [IMG]i/expressions/demon.gif[/IMG]

If I get a winter beater soon, I will be trying that for sure in the snow and ice, and with any luck I will get it on vid too.

lol
seems to me most people like screwing around with their cars
I still cant trust my driving or my tires [IMG]i/expressions/face-icon-small-mad.gif[/IMG]

When people do tray drifting do you use trays? or are there other more better alternatives?
the mcdonald trays wear out in a few donuts and drifts..

me and my friends use metal trash can lids. We get them off the trash cans at the local junior college. All you got do is unscrew the handles on the top and they are ready to slide. 6 of them lasted for about 2 hours of fun, and 5 different cars.
