I am 14. My dad has an '85 Mercury Grand Marquis with the
302 V-8. This car's body is in bad shape. I have been
driving in my yard for about a year now. I can drive
on the road sometimes. I was driving around on our dead
end road, which is about 2 miles of almost straight road.
I went in the house for a while to get a pop. Then I came
back out and drove out of the driveway, put her in reverse,
gave her hell and the tires squealed pretty loudly. I
backed up about 100 feet and thought if it can do that in
reverse, I will try to burn 'em in drive. I put it in drive
and put her to the floor. The tires were howling for a bit
then the ass moved to the left about four feet. I thought
that was kinda cool but, not satisfied, I backed up again.
This time I put it in first on the column and put the brakes
on. I stomped on it, then I heard three chirps, then they
were spinning. I kept it down for about 5 seconds and looked
back and HOLY SHIT, smoke everywhere, so I put it into
second because rpms were raging. They kept rolling for another
2 seconds. When I let off the brake and it lurched forward
and the ass came around about four feet again. During all
this I hadn't realized I had moved ahead a good 20-30 feet,
leaving good evidence to my dad of my fun. I told him
it was the neighbor kid. wehhh! Close call! I never thought
that rust bucket had it in it. I hope to get a pic of
it sooner or later. BURNOUTS ARE FUN!!!!
