No hood fun

Me, and my buddy chris were really bored so we took the hood off my TL in 20 seconds then shot a video. I was recording. Thanks to him driving i'm pretty sure i lost 5,000 miles on my tires when he pulled the e-brake

I don't understand why some people act as if the TL is a Rolls Royce. It's an old car. Alot of people have it.

I know alot of you have done absurd stuff with your car, and it makes that bad because?
It's just a car.

My car looks bad? no i'm pretty sure not.
Trying to work my way up to get the a-spec lip kit, and the mods i've done so far? yes
I take my car in and out to John eagle acura. They think it's great. Actually almost got me a job with them since they see i actually really love the car. Also helping me with discounts for the parts i need.

me and my friend are really just messing around? yeah.. i think that's the point of the video. I'm not trying to impress anyone. Only sharing a video not trying to get criticized over it.

I'm so glad I live in a gated community where people respect others and don't do fly by's and spinouts in the street.

If I lived in your community I'd be talking to your parents about your 'fun' in a residential neighborhood.

I really heard it with the hood off.



Apparently you did too with your other video of you doing 140 in your TL. Nice.

Its not a Rolls Royce. Its also not a 95 Civic. Yes a lot of people have them...including younger people who do dumb shit like maxing it out on a public road.

That's the slowest climb to 140mph I think I've ever seen

Here's how I do it
btw: idk why the guy put that it's twin turbo.. it's a d1 procharger.

bad launch.. 10.41 @ 139.75mph

Mods - Get this jackass off our site. Please?


I wouldn't be surprised if someone in that neighborhood slashed your tires as soon as they get a chance. Completely ridiculous.

I would hate to be your neighbor...If you did that down the street where my parents live I am sure that you would have a few people right behind you getting ready to kick the shit out of you. You should really think before you act like a complete moron!!! And then to post this on line... You deserve the flame that you are about to get.

And it isn't alot... its a lot!!!

thank god i dont live on that street. i would have lit your ass up.

you talk about buying mods, but you wont be buying shit tearing up your car like that let alone if you or your friend hit a pole, mailbox, or a person.

and since you are trying to get a job at John Eagle, ill make sure to make a call up there and let them know what kind of image you will portray for the company as well as a direct link to this video. im sure they will love to know that this is probably that crap you would pull in one of our cars if it were there for service.

It's okay to mess around, we all were teenagers or young adults at some point, but speeding down a residential community and doing what was conducted in the video is not proper and it's not safe at all...kids could have ran out in the street at anytime, besides show respect to your neighbors.

^Direct it towards both of them. 1) Driver being ignorant 2) Owner of the car video taping somebody driving ignorant in his car. Ever seen the movie Dumb and Dumber?

your a dumb EXPLETIVE. you had the camcorder in hand filming so i'm pretty damn sure you thought "hey i have a bad ass car lets get some fly-by footage. here, you drive and i record".

just because you weren't driving doesn't mean its not your fault. its YOUR CAR, and YOU RECORDING.

"not my neighborhood" why in the HELL would that matter. you shouldn't be doing WOT fly-bys in any damn neighborhood. anything over 30mph on a residential street the same size as the one in the video is still going pretty fast.

and your friends a dumb EXPLETIVE. why the hell would he pull the e-brake for? he has no respect for your car, but to me it seems like you two probably drive around together prolly do stupid EXPLETIVE like this all the time. probably not his first time driving your car either

TYPICAL 18 YR OLD KIDS.....

Yikes...

On a positive note, are those the common eBay quad exhaust tips that you are using with the base bumper? If so, please direct me to some additional photos so that I can send them to a buddy considering the same mod.

In the meantime... Be careful out there.

i know you're probably disappointed you didnt get the response you were looking for, what did you want us to say? "nice fly by!" "sounds good!"? im 21 right now and i know what its like to mess around at times, but i dont do it in residential neighborhoods. do it on a wide open highway or big empty parking lot if you must.

At 0:42 I thought he was gonna do a Gone in Sixty Second move and run it in Reverse then whip it around while throwing it in Drive. Though not the right venue for such a trick, woulda been awesome to see. Other than, this thread is teh suck
