front wheels off the ground.....

he was totally serious....

he also wrapped it around a tree and blamed it on unexpected sudden acceleration....

Ok...wierd... I think I managed to get all 4 wheels of my Mustang off the ground once on a road called 'Rollercoaster Road' by cresting hills rapidly...but since I was driving I wasn't sure if I was getting air or not..(though the front air dam definitely contacted the pavement more than once)...

hehe... he was full of hot air.... do you really think a circa '89 Firebird V6 would be able to pull it's front wheels off the ground?

No...not without the help of a jack... :)

You have a Rollercoaster Road over there, too? And you've gotten air, as well? Fun, isn't it? :P

I've been in the passanger seat of a street legal '69 Camaro

when it lifed both wheels off the ground. Some of you may

remember it, the green 454-powered hardtop I helped my

crazy buddy Sean sell on eBay, we delivered it to the buyer

in North Carolina in 2005.

Sean used to pop a wheelie in it from time to time, not exactly

good for the front suspension though when it landed.

But this was with custom built traction bars, a 500 horsepower

big block/M22 four speed & Weld racing wheels

(classic drag stance)

I have no doubt that there are Camaros and Firebirds of every generation out there that can lift the front wheels off the ground. However, a circa '89 Firebird V6 ain't gonna do it.

Yes....lots of fun... IIRC, I've driven on 3 different roads named Rollercoaster Road--one near Colorado Springs (Black Forest), one outside Ann Arbor, MI and one in eastern Ohio...I love that type of road...rolling hills and curves..

Sure it will, if a Wrecker brings it to the impound, it will LIFT the front wheels off the ground.

I've met too many ignorant people like this in my life. '85 Dodge Dakota drivers who insist their

truck has a HEMI, FWD 1988 Cadillac deVille owners who insist their car is MORE luxurious and

has a better ride than a Fleetwood Brougham of the same year, Honda Civic owners who will

swear their 1998 LEFT hand drive Si was imported from Japan & is JDM, it has a 1.8 liter motor

and will do the 1/4 mile in 12.9 STOCK! :rolleyes:
