Looks like fun.

Old news, but yeah, tried it, and its fun if you're stuck with a FWD car. Back in high school, used to work at McDicks with a bunch of friends; closing up the place at night, we'd grab a stack of 6 or so, and head to the Superstore parkinglot for some fun. Good times, good times...

Hey, when are you going to post your Gixxer up?

I'd like to try it with metal trays.

I think I posted a couple of crummy pics in the "post your ride" section (a couple computer reformats ago). 8)

Traying, good stuff. Gotta try that sometime in the Sentra, which has probably hit 100,000 by now. It'll be a nice little anniversary. 8)

That is awsome.

targa_997 · December 6th, 2006, 12:25 AM

Do you need to put the handbrake on?

klutch · December 6th, 2006, 12:27 AM

Yeah, it holds the trays under the rear wheels.

"You havn't lived until you've slid" with a couple of trays under your rear wheels. I've only done it once with a MDX, gets a little tippy when you wear through the trays.

You should put some trays on your front tires and floor it. images/smilies/tongue.gif

What a bad idea, handbrake is really useful on snow with a FWD.

Maybe due to the suspension: when Xantias are at rest, rear suspension goes to the lowest level => modify the distance between the front and the rear axle.

If you hadn't noticed most cars these days are FWD, and many of us have to buy what we can afford. I would like a RWD car, but I am limited by my significant size, six foot four inches, and budget. I know that if I had the luxury of owning two vehicles one would be RWD and the other 4WD.

Are you sure? I know the handbrake only affects the rear brakes for the Volvo 850, 740, 240, and 1800. (I don't think its true of the new V50s either, but I haven't felt the need to pull a handbrake turn in my mom's new one to find out)
Maybe Ford decided to be retarded with all their upper level brands when they bought them.

The Saab 99 locks on the front wheels iirc. Maybe that's what he was thinking about.
