Default the american way

I roasted 'em today. I'm not a big burnout guy, I don't like to abuse a vehical and attract attention. My freind drove by me at a stop sign, though,and gave me the international smokem signal. I obliged him. I was quite impressed. The truck easily spun both tires for about 20'. Felt like i coulda grabbed 2nd and smoked em for another 20'. I felt a little silly and childish,but it did get my adrenaline going. BTW my freind was impressed. mission accomplished. 4.7 six spd. these trucks are kinda badass!

I'm guessing it's when you look over and take your pointer fingers, point them towards eachother,and spin them in a circle.

Another one that works is when you just flip them the bird. They usually get pissed and spin them with that signal too!! Especially Mustang drivers!

Ok, maybe it's just my truck, but I can't get my tires to grab enough to spin them, my rear end of my truck just bounces all over the place.... it's a 4.7L six-speed as well... :-(

I've done it once or twice with mine. I have a little more weight on the back, though...with my topper and the in-bed toolbox.
