someone left a lot of rubber on this road, in 3 locations, but I could only get good photos of 2 of them

 

press play, turn up the speakers, watch the smoke get let out of the tires

Mustang owners ought to watch this, learn how to not wreck when leaving a car show, and save their cars.

The popular BA Falcon unexpectedly loses control and skids all over the road, sometimes for an extended period of time, it seems to be a well known factory defect owners just have to put up with, maybe Ford will authorize a recall to fix them? Thanks Paul!

The popular BA Falcon, built between 2002 and 2005, was available in a wide variety of 6 and 8 cylinder configurations and with a wide range of body styles including sedan, utility and station wagon versions.

“Time and again we get called out to reports of a vehicle doing so-called “burn-outs”, “donuts”, “skids” or “drifting” in isolated areas” said Constable Airquotes, from Betoota East Police Station.

“However, when we get there, the driver explains they were just minding their own business, legally driving through a deserted area in the middle of the night, when suddenly their vehicle unexpectedly loses control and skids all over the road, sometimes for an extended period of time”.

“It has reached the point where we can’t just say it is a coincidence that the BA Falcon is over-represented in these types of incidents. I would say that 9 times out of 10 a late-night loss of traction incident involves a BA Falcon, and in all of these situations the driver says the vehicle is to blame. In fact, just last night a unit returning from an unrelated call-out noticed a BA Falcon performing “burn-outs” in the Betoota Grange Industrial Estate.”

“Luckily, just as we arrived on the scene the driver was able to regain control of the vehicle and turn it off, but from the markings, on the road it was clear that he had been trapped inside the out-of-control vehicle for an extended period of time. It must have been quite a traumatic experience, especially for a P-Plater. The young man was certainly very shaken up when he was talking to us”.

In the meantime, Constable Airquotes said there are steps that BA Falcon owners could take to minimize the risk of unexpected traction loss.

“Firstly, avoid driving at night, especially around underpopulated areas which seems to trigger the problem. Secondly, avoid disengaging the “Traction Control” feature, as this appears to aggravate the issue. Thirdly, where possible avoid replacing the rear alloy wheels with stock wheels, as this also seems to make the loss of traction much more likely”.

When you work at a Dodge dealership that sells Hellcats and Demons....

there's more, but just how damn far should I walk back to get the whole length of the new tattoos? 

start the new year with a burn out, but you can't top this... a world record set in Australia today

So... I guess Texas has to find some pride and see if they can do it bigger or better!

Tanner Foust was using the Las Vegas Convention center like a drifting course this year at SEMA

below is a crowd shot to show how many people were hanging around every time they fired up the drift cars
