We have a set of neighbors' kids that ride loud, unmuffled motorbikes around the neighborhood. They are annoying to say the least. Let alone the way they are likely to get killed. Our neighborhood is hilly, curvey, and borders a lake. Cars go about 15 to 20 MPH on the 1-lane roads in here.
These teenagers have been seen going faster than 60 on their dirtbikes, ON THE ROAD, in the heighborhood.
Anyway, they were out in their yard working on their bikes. SO.... Against my better judgment, I eased to a stop, shifted to Low, and did a LOUD, SMOKING, RAUCOUS turbocharger shrieking front-wheel-drive BURNOUT.
When I let off the gas and drove away, the kids were staring with their jaws on the ground, as the blue cloud of acrid-smelling tire smoke drifted over them.
It took the silly grin at least 5 minutes to wear off my face after that!
