Me Spinning the Tires and Going Sideways!

Sorry guys, it's not on pavement! My truck couldn't spin any tire on pavement if it put it's heart and soul into it. But, I did spin the tires and get sideways in my backyard, so here's a little video for your viewing pleasure. I'm just happy to have her running and cranking up reliably now. Not every one in twenty tries haha. It's an interesting camera view as well, had it duct taped to the rear bumper.

Haha, I thought about that as the tires were spinning after going through the two trees and the truck went sideways. That's why I parked it and didn't do anymore video lol.

Re: Me Spinning the Tires and Going Sideways!

Soonest I'd be able to do that would be... probably Saturday. I've got soccer practice after school all this week and it's always dark when I get home. I'll try and get one though! I'll take into consideration the reverse driving as well, sounds like it would be a load of fun, haha.

Re: Me Spinning the Tires and Going Sideways!

Roflmao, that's what I was wondering when I first started watching the video, but it disappeared pretty quickly and I didn't smell anything when I took the camera off so I don't think so lol. That would of sucked big time, I'm driving got the camera rolling, then the screen just goes black! I go to take it off and there's a big wad of dog crap on the lens. I would of had to of posted that up for you guys and let you guess what happened lol.
