Great thread!

1. 16... we stole my buddy's parents brand new 1997 Eddie Bauer Expedition and went tooling around. Then we decided to go offroading and go the fucker stuck to the frame in the mud and had to walk five miles back to civilization only to have to pay to have it towed, then we had to clean it, then we got in deep shit.

2. 16... I had a Probe GT (FWD) and by buddy (same friend as above) got a new '98 siver/black GT mustang. I'd never driven a powerful RWD car and never one that has the probensity to spin like a stang (light rear). I was driving to his GF's house while they made out in the back seat! I was having a blast but decided to gun it comming off a turn in the rain ( dumb as shit ) The car supn, tagged a curb, and bumped a tree. I had to pay for two new wheels and a re-paint fo the bumper! Fuck that scuked b/c being 16 I had NO money.

Got my cobra at 17 and the second week of having it I did a double 360 on the DC beltway trying to change lanes quickly in the damp wet. There was a tire tread in front of me, but thank god I didn't hit anyone or the wall! That sucked.

I've learned and haven't done anything dumb in my Vette. Once I drove home fairly drunk (drove fine) but knew if I got pulled I'd be fucked. I got home and was pretty pissed at my selft!

Cya!

First car - ran into various trees, shrubberys, buildings, and other vehicles for shits 'n giggles.

Second car - when I was tired of driving it, I scraped the VIN numbers off and took that bitch muddin', got 20-30 minutes into it, finally got stuck, and walked home.

Third car - (Festiva) - 1. Drifted up/down numerous on/off-ramps with my rear-bumper purposely scraping the guard rail. Good times until the rear tires fell off.. 2. Took springs off, cut springs in half, reinstalled springs. 3. Found random garbage on trash nights (recliners and televisions and things of the such) and threw them out of the rear hatch at very high speeds.. then turned around and ran them over. 4. Jumped more railroad tracks than anyone on this board. Guaranteed.

Fourth car - (92 Escort) - .. nothing stupid... weird...

Fifth car - (99 SHO) - Totalled. I'm a fucking idiot. I seriously get teary-eyed thinking about it.

Sixth car - (Lowered 92 Integra) - 1. I bought it. 2. Used as a snow plow through many, many parking lots. Mainly the piles of snow that had been plowed up. Only got stuck once.

Seventh car - (94 Explorer) - .. nothing overly dumb..

Eighth car - (91 Escort) - Have taken it mudding twice. Any suggestions?

I've done that before as well, while passing a cop in the left turn lane. I seriously didn't notice the light until I was halfway through it, then decided to slam on my brakes.. haha.

I don't do anything stupid now...

OK dumbest thing EVER. and i swear it is the only time i regretted ever being given a valid drivers license because my tom foolery was at the max. me and my boy went up to a shop in Richmond to pick up a turbo AWD dsm. and i had his nicely modded lude (2001) and the guys at said shop wanted us to line up and race. so our retarded asses pull out onto main st. in richmond in the fucking middle of the day and STOP 2 out of i think 3 or 4 lanes of traffic and launch. the following hour was spent ditching the cars and runnin around like mad men afraid someone has seen us. we didnt go over maybe 48 MPH it was just the simple dumbshit idea of actually stoppin midday richmond traffic to launch. i gave myself the dumbass driver award for that. aside from that.. ive been completely sane behind the wheel. i guess everyone gets one slip where your brain isnt paying attention to what the hell your body is doing.
