Well, I was drivin with a friend of mine, and I said I wanted to go offroad (tercel 4x4) so we hit this snow covered dirt road, and I was takin corners like a rally driver, lol. It was fun as ####, but anyway, halfway down the road, he says "do a 180" and I figured, ####, I've done it before, so i did. Brought it around about 170 degrees, and threw the front end into a snowbank, lol. The road wasn't wide enough for the car to clear it.

The engine cut out on impact, and I sat there for about 15 minutes trying to start it, but no joy. Some redneck that lived nearby was taunting us, asking if we had money and saying we were screwed when I said I was broke.

Finally, we ended up digging out the car with a measly little ice scraper, and pushed it down the hill. I ran around to the drivers side to put it in gear and pop the clutch while it was rolling, and Boom, started right up!

We took off like a bat out of ####, lol.  Boy, what i'd give to see the look on that redneck's face when we got the engine going again, lol.

Yeah that ruled. Next time we go offroading in a beater we're using my mom's corolla. And if we bank it or drive it into a ditch I'm not getting it out. <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/smile.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':)'>

Oh yeah btw, I was swamped by a bunch of rednecks down at Dunkin Donuts today when I went to get my breakfast bagel on my lunch break. A bunch of 'em were telling me to pop the hood and &quot;gun her&quot;. They acted as if they've seen God. Hehe stupid rednecks.
