Thanks, I'll have it looked at.

It doesn't work the other direction either. I just noticed something, though. It starts to go sideways for a little while then a clunk and then it stops going sideways.

That's a good thought. I normally go counter-clockwise for center-of-gravity reasons, but I'll try going clockwise.

I understand how your strategy works when you troll. Poke at people trying to elicit a response then throw more insults so I'm not taking it very personal, because you don't really know me. However, you should think about what the fallout might be. My wife just read that comment and is beside...

Not you, Brian. SGBarracuda is trolling me. Ignoring my question and throwing insults. And now fisherman67 is trolling cause he feels like he owes backup to his buddy.

It's definitely a suregrip rear end. It must be broken.

Wow. Best insult ever. Why you trolling, Gramps? Don't most of you trolls hang out over at Reddit.

Ahh, the video didn't show up before. That's exactly what I'm talking about. Mine won't do that. I guess the suregrip is broken. I have many other cars that do so it's not lack of skill. It's a manual so it's a pain to power brake. The pedals aren't lined up very well to heel-toe it. I rev it...

Jeesh. I almost didn't ask, because I knew some kill joy would pipe his two cents in. Thanks for the lecture Gramps. Yes, I like wearing out tires in circles. For what? That's like asking why water is wet. Some things just are. I like it 'cause I like it. 'Cause it's fun. 'Cause I can afford all...

So you're saying I should be able to do a donut?

The problem is I don't drag race, but I do tons of donuts. I have a parking lot with a blocked off section for my shenanigans.

I am full throttle, but no donut.

I have a 1972 dart with the big block treatment and a 5 speed Tremec. I put an 8 3/4 a body rear end in it with suregrip. I also had it rebuilt. It's very fun, but I think it's not working right or maybe it is and I dont understand how it should work. I can't do donuts. My Mustang and Chevelle...

Haha. Good call.

That's good to know. I just found a set of used buckets and I can get these if the tracks are no good. The seats cost me dearly, though ($600 with freight). They'll still need to be rebuilt.
