Got ANOTHER Thrasher car...
a few of my friends went and bought another cheap car to thrash and rally. They got a 1984 Toyota Celica with the 22R-E engine in it. It is rearwheel drive and an automatic so its loads of fun. We set up a rally course out on my friends land today and did timed runs. It was so much fun. This car rips it up. It has a hand e-brake and it spins so well in the grass/dirt. My one friend flew at a large dirt pile and jumped it like crazy! he probably got 3 feet of air. he did it a few times and i took pictures and another buddy got it on film. The front end smashed down hard and now the drivers door is hard to open. The hood doesn't align anymore and the front quarter panels are caved in. its soo much fun. They also cut out the rear fenders a couple inches for more clearance and cut out a custom hood scoop. i will have pictures up ina bout a week or so. Just thought i'd share. Tomorrow i am going around town in an attempt for find a free or cheap car so we can all race together...sooo much fun!! SOO much air time!!

I would have everyone throw in another $20/peice for a helmet, will be worth the money in the long run.
