Recommended Posts

i took the car to get new tyres orderd for the rears today and thought id destroy the remainder of the rears and in mid doughnut the engine just died?

so i thought id try a big burnout :innocent: (fine) no loss of power atall

tryed another doughnut! loss of power again?:blink:

its like its not getting fuel or something like that

and it seems to only do it when the car is swinging around

i thought i had done something rong but!!!

 

so if anyone knows what causes this id love to know!

 

thanks for looking.

last person I know who did a few too many doughnuts (guy called Bolts on here) managed to destroy his auto gearbox, literally siezed the whole thing. Perhaps its the Supra's way of asking you nicely to stop trying to kill it ;)

silly question perhaps, but did it make a difference which way round you were doing the donuts?
