When I lived in NYC, I would occasionally roll my Fuel Altered out in front of the house and do whomps and chirpies.
Many tears on my block back then..not many of joy, though
We lived in similar neighborhoods.
I live on a 7-house cul-de-sac in SoCal. Years ago when I had my original '69 340 Swinger, my neighbor directly across the cul-de-sac had a '57 Chevy Cameo pickup with a built SBC. Every couple of weeks or so I pull into the cul-de-sac after work and see two black tire marks coming out of my driveway and aiming directly for his house - he'd gotten home from work, backed up to my driveway and did a quick burnout across to his driveway.
Of course I had to return the favor.
Our little cul-de-sac had a burned-rubber crosswalk from my driveway to his. The neighbor kids loved it.
Of course, this was back in the early '70s when everything wasn't as PC as it is today.
Sadly, my neighbor moved away many years ago. But I plan to do a burnout (or several) in memory of the good times when my current '69 Dart build is finished.
