Congratulations. You just discovered how to spin cold tires.

Next thing you know it'll be summer and you can figure out heat soaked brakes.

Run your posts through ms-word first, you will not look like such a jackass. Other than that, learn to respect the car rather than beating the hell out of it. Also, I suggest you do a lot of reading in the stickies; knowledge will save your *** when stuff starts breaking. Try to write your posts in an adult fashion, you will get a lot more respect, and remember; this is a technical forum, not somewhere for 17-year-old kids to post on doing donuts.

That aside, welcome to the club.

hahah wow I didn't think I would get flamed that badly for that post. I actually thought you guys would find that one a tad bit funnier than that. And yes I know I should spell check hard core. Im dislexic when it comes to typing thinking faster then I can actually type with peck and hunt typing. And I hope not to discover heat soaked breaks when I upgrade to cross drilled rotors. And no I wont wreck it either. Not after a year of put a lot of hard labor into getting it running. And on that note, I don't want to beat the car to a pulp nor beat at all. I've worked too hard and put too much money into it to wreck it. I was just a tad bit too excited, when I finally got it up and running without any smoking issues or leaks or hesitation or brake failure. Felt like posting that. I thought you guys would find a bit humoris to read but I guess I will just stick to more mature lingo from here on in. Actually it spun for 2 reasons. All the tires are all on the wrong way and it they were cold. I did not mount them. Nor can I get them off right now becasue the nuts are stuck to the paint on the wheels when the shop mounted them on for me right after gettin painted...don't ask. I sincerely apologize and promise never to post such childish posts ever again.

Well, we're plenty childish in here. Congrats on getting your car running, but be careful until you're sure everything is working reliably.

But one subject that's bound to cross people the wrong way is youthful foolish excitement about going fast, spinning out, and drifting. I'm surprised you hadn't noticed that before.

True I understand that trust me I have more then enough respect and know how, not to be stupid with the car and I fully understand that I am driving my own casket if I don't get my **** together and learn how to properly control such a car. But one can't be sure everything is right without takign small test drives on it first to check for leaks and what not. PLus I plan to make it as safe as possible before i actually take it out on the road or do any more perfomance up grades ot it. Mianly breaks, suspension, bucket seat and 5 point harness. I figure a helmet would be good for my noggin too. And a roll cage, but I would have to have one custom made, but I would definitely want one....I mean I posted long ago before the car was runnign about roll cages and what not and best safety methods becasue I know what the car is I know how fast it is...or at least found out beyond my last beliefe. I've never been a fooolishly wreckless child with cars in all my life. None of you would know this becasue none of you know me and so I don't take offense to any of what you guys posted.

xeros.

So it sounds like you finally got your car running. Cool... What did it turn out to be? Also not trying to tell you what to do, but it is excellent practice around here: when you have a problem, and post, and end up fixing it to post the results, so others may benefit.
