TerminatorX5 is on a distinguished road
yeap, that's the one!!!... i was laughing my a$$ all the way to the end... it seems that the crash sensors went off - the curtain airbags went off, flashers came on... i just wonder, if spinning the tires so fast will ignite the rubber to point of explosion... or, it was just air pressure blow out... knocked the lens off the rear tail light, busted the bumper and bent some metal...

Also, when I tried something like that in the snow, I had to turn off the DSC or whatever that traction control thing is called, otherwise I would get no spinning at all, not even RPM would go up as I pressed the gas pedal... I would "rock" the car to get it out of the snow, not try to run like crazy in one direction...

Any experts that could chime in on this?

PS. the other truck, the one that is the local make ( i think it's called " URAL") has air pumps at each tire that can lower or increase pressure of the tires - very cool feature...
