Took out some trees yesterday, jumped it a couple times and ended up burying it in mud. Didn't really beat it too bad.

Today I go to where it's parked on the edge of the woods to see that my buddies towed it about 200 yards across gravel/pavement, while it was in park lol.

Took it out today, smoked the tires and blew out the right rear, still drove for 5 miles on rim, then got the spare hahaha. Then proceeded to jump it, and smashed into about a 18" big around tree at about 35mph, and smash the front end in hahaha. Radiator's fine and it still runs and drives.

but...

it's stuck in a endless pit of beach sand.... fuck

oh yeah, the driver's door doesn't close anymore because I must of bent the frame when I hit the tree. :smt045

I don't know why a video wasn't included with this post. My uncle used to farm and sold most of the farm land but still lived on a pretty good sized acreage. We got some 6 cylinder 79 Mustang (1st year for fox body) and a few Pintos. Paid anywhere from $25 to $100 for them. My uncle took a grader and graded out about a tenth mile circle track. Whacked off the exhausts, locked the cars in 1st gear and raced them around the track. Damn that was a good time. We beat the shit out of those things. After a while we started welding bumpers across the tops of the fenders for more radiator protection. Went through a lot of tires, radiators, and killed a battery when me and my cousin hit each other pretty good and one got knocked into the fan. The bad thing was, the cars sat a lot so we didn't leave batteries in them, we'd just drive over there and pull the batteries out of good cars. So the battery was a good one from one of my uncle's cars. Damn, good times. Gotta love beating the shit out of cheap cars.

between gas and paying for it, I've got about $45 into it, I've got 2 days of rallying into it, so I'm paying $22.50 a day for lots of fun. Which is a lot less then if I done something else in this town where there is nothing to do

Problem I've always had with doing stuff like that, is getting rid of the junk after it's all blown up and wrecked.

As long as he never titled it, getting rid of it won't be a problem :smt023
