Lots of fun. I remember the first winter I got my licence, '71, doing donuts in my dad's '67 Buick Riviera for ages in the Bayview Village Shopping Centre parking lot at night in Willowdale. That place is now busy 24/7, no kid could get away with stuff like that. The Riv had a 430, just right for a testosterone laden teenager!

I spent the first winter I had my license in the parking lot of Empire Stadium in the snow, learning how to control my car by doing donuts and other tricks. We didn't get a lot of snow in Vancouver, but enough to practise.

Used to do it in Reverse with my 66 toronado LOL, that was different. Seems like twice as many people or cars around anymore to do a lot of these.

You could do that in a new car, but it'd never, ever look as cool as that!
I like the 60.

We use to go to a mall parking lot at night.Get up as much speed in reverse and turn the wheel that was the best ride you could ever get for free.

I worked at a plastics factory as a forklift operator when I was a teenager. A hydraulic hose blew on one of the moulding machines ... oil everywhere. Well, I took advantage of it. Forklift fun!
