Look at the torque on the rear tires of the car in the bottom picture. Looks like a dragster tire on takeoff. Power aplenty.

Chicken wingz, chicken tenders, fries, other deliciousness that's not found at WaWa. Improvement, not imitation.

I'll be honest never been to a sheetz on a regular basis so I don't know what they have. I live right behind a Wawa though and love their subs and stuff. Also for anyone who has no idea what I'm talking about a Wawa is a convenience story/deli/gas station in Pa, Maryland, Delaware, and Jersey (off the top of my head)

It looks to me like he is braking.

I love these pictures.

 

[Johali]

I love these pictures.

Then I'm sure you can explain if he's braking, why the front tires are fully inflated even with the full weight of the car pressing on them.

 

[VaDirt]

It looks to me like he is braking.

I love these pictures.

Yeah, looks like just low tire pressure/thin sidewall.

And yeah, this thread is awesome, love seeing all these cool pictures y'all are posting.

And because she was going so slow it didn't do much damage.

That is an interesting bit of information. I would have thought that 69 would have come out on top at least a few times.
