Re: Craziest thing you've done to "just get home"
This happened to me back in my VW daze! I had a 72 beetle 2240cc close ratio trans all the good stuff, porsche alloys disc brakes, basic drag car on the street! I could pull the front wheels off the ground from 1st to 2nd gear. any how,broke a throttle cable on the 101 at cold water canyon and pulled into the center divider( no emergency lane ) cars were just blowing bye! I had to get out of there or be hit so I took of one of my chicks shoe laces and tied the dual 48 IDA webers open and started it up and made a speed run off the freeway! Sounds funny, but to control the gas I turned the key off& on! Never was I more happy to have a 11 second street car (4 mpg) cheers, Pat
