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.

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, *** end came around, tail happy.
