[QUOTE="7mmMag, post: 263529, member: 1188"] I've had my fair share of them but I'll just tell one story. Back in high school my cousin bought a 1967 4 door LeMans. Well this car had been sitting for a while so we filled the EXTREMELY weather checked tires with air and decided to see how fast it could go. So I went and got my dads handheld GPS. We went just outside of town on a paved county road and hit 112 mph and then starting going up a hill. So we thought hell lets just turn around and go back down the hill and really get some speed. At the bottom of the hill there was a bridge spanning the James River. I'm in the backseat reading off the speed as we go down the hill. 114....115....116 and when I said 116 we just started going across the bridge and it sounded like a shotgun went off in the car. I remember thinking to myself "What the hell was that??" And thats when all hell broke loose. The car started fishtailing ALL over the road, from one ditch to the other and back again and again and again....I think you get the picture. My cousin ended up finally getting it slowed down and stopped after a mile or so. We all just sat in the car for awhile not saying a thing, gathering our thoughts. When we got out of the car we realized that we blew both back tires. So we blew both back tires at 116 mph and some how didn't roll the car. My old man was not happy when he heard the story. Im sure he will get mad after he reads this story again. Sorry wby257! [/QUOTE]
