Dont Be A Wussy. Enjoy Your Accord

I've been doing this since the 2nd week I had my car and I got to say that it never gets old. I haven't performed this in some time mostly because I've been busy with the wife and kid(s). So I found a nice place in Chicago to brush off my old hobby:

This was performed on a closed road. Do not attempt in public roads!

cars should have no personality and drive in straight lines from points A to B. deviation from this rule is unacceptable. let us point our fingers in ridicule at vinny.

I recognize the Ozinga concrete trucks and the bridge. LOL.

Watch for a silver alabaster car in the Lockport area.

Unibody cars can and do have subframes. Often the engine and transmission are mounted to a subframe and then the subframe is bolted to the bottom of the unibody.
