9787, AWD + Lots of Power + Wet Roads + 5K launch = Partytime

dunno why, but I was in a bad mood this morning, so I stopped at a light, I'm turning right, revved it up, dumped the clutch, and slid sideways across the intersection.

Love it. Power your AWD Spinout story.

LOL, I have never experienced wheel hop in my car. This was like I was sliding on glass. And I love the sound of the motor bouncing off the rev limiter at 7500rpms.

I was lining up against a 99 WS6 at a light once. Got too antsy and dropped the clutch at 6k, lit all four tires up in smoke, got sideways and wacked my rear driver rim against the curb. Talk about embarassing :D
