Squatting a 325 HOW DO YOU DO THAT?

marss · 04-13-2006, 09:31 PM

Ok, so my friend was driving my car 325i, we were at a light. He did something where the back of the car dropped (suspension i guess?). As if it squatted. I don't know what he was doing... hitting the break, or steering wheel, or the gears... Point is he is refusing to tell me, and wants me to figure it out on my own. But I tried everything!! How did he do it??

Hmmm I think he held onto the handbrake and press the throttle...the car would squat at the back...

Magic.

marss · 04-13-2006, 09:46 PM

LOL don't say "magic!" that's the exact same thing he said. Said it was a real racer's trick! Bull**** Man, I'm dying to know, cut a girl some slack!

shimshimhada · 04-13-2006, 09:47 PM

You're a girl? Post pics, and I'll tell you.

marss · 04-13-2006, 09:49 PM

I just signed on like 15 min ago literally! Gotta give some time here Oranges. C'mon tell me, so I can try it in the AM and pretend i'm kewl.

KL2DC · 04-13-2006, 09:49 PM

I'd wager its the handbrake...I know 'cos I used to do it all the time, when I was bored quite some moons ago

KL2DC · 04-13-2006, 09:50 PM

Oranges...cute nickname

marss · 04-13-2006, 09:52 PM

The handbreak huh. Just the handbreak? I don't know know, i was watching him but i dont think he was doing anything with the handbreak, unless i was just oblivious. lol

shimshimhada · 04-13-2006, 09:52 PM

Is your car auto?

marss · 04-13-2006, 09:52 PM

Oranges knows, just doesn't wanna tell =P

marss · 04-13-2006, 09:53 PM

Yes its auto

shimshimhada · 04-13-2006, 09:56 PM

marss · 04-13-2006, 10:00 PM

ORANGES!!! ur a tease! I'm gonna sit at a red light and put my handbreaks up.... i'll see if that works! =P

shimshimhada · 04-13-2006, 10:04 PM

, you go do that. Don't break your car.

KL2DC · 04-13-2006, 10:05 PM

marss...you got to hold it up tight (button press) then let go of the brake pedal and touch the go pedal....the car will squat. Again, this would be my best bet....

unless oranges knows something I don't....

marss · 04-13-2006, 10:05 PM

ohhh crap. lol

KL2DC · 04-13-2006, 10:06 PM

shimshimhada · 04-13-2006, 10:06 PM

KL2DC · 04-13-2006, 10:09 PM

Shim: its just fun and games....don't have a case of sour oranges over it

shimshimhada · 04-13-2006, 10:10 PM
