My friends and I have definite jargon when it comes to cars. Curious if anyone else does this and what you say.



Examples:

Driving hard = beatin on it,

Driving fast = ballin' or hammerassin'

Spinning in a circle = doughnuts (I've heard people say "spin apples" and thought it was weird)

Do a burnout = light em up

Oversteer = gettin ass happy

Fire it up - start car

Nail it - floor the accelerator

Bump - shift gear (up/down doesn't matter)

Sit there - to coast, not speed up or slow down

I hardly talk "cars" with anybody, so I usually have to explain how a clutch works before telling them how I accelerated quickly.



I do however always say just a simple "UH..." when a wreck is about to happen (sometimes following by pointing), or something breaks.

drifter 05-21-2004 09:08 AM

yeah my mates and I say

nailing it = going fast (eg, I was nailing it around the corner)

give it some **** = do a burnout

give it some herbs, **** = go fast

fang it = go fast

Never thought about it.



Drop the hammer = putting your foot to the floor



I'm probably the only one of my generation that still uses "to the wood". Foot to the floor in other words, not talking about people's childish fascination with the male anatomy *coughs*



Sucking Air: Leak in the injection system



Otherwise just descriptions of what's going on. IE Swapping ends, ass end came around, tail happy.

"You need to turn in more." = "You suck at turning."

"You need to give more throttle." = "You suck at throttle response."

It's not paranoia if people really are out to get you!



Off-topic, but I'm bored at work so whatever...



"You're hot." = "You have a nice rack."

"You're hot!" = "You have a big rack."

"You are hot!!" = "You have a really big rack."
