true you can spin tires in any car thats a stick but im saying like red9450 said, going like 20 and stomp it. if you can roll, stab it and spin from like 20 then yea its power. there was a guy whos car died at this intersection of a small outdoor mall type place where a bunch of cars go and stuff and theres stores and restuarants and movies so its a good hangout for people with cars. anyways it was like an 85 toyota POS and it died, he got pissed started it up and dropped the clutch from like 7 grand.lmao it was hilarious.
