if your "hot wheels type cars" say they are intended for adult collectors., you know the firing order of a chevy 350 by heart, you know every car song ever made and all the words., And the smell of 110 octane burning makes your heart race and brings back the good ole days! crazy thumbsup

Instead of 110 octane, how about the smell of smokin' tires at a drift event or a drag race? Heck, even just a hard throttle off a light next to a ricer... laugh I like the smell of smokin' tires in the morning. Smells like...victory.

Thanks, Tbat! One night my friend and I walked out of a Dunkin Donuts, to discover that his front tire had gone flat. Since he didn't have a spare, he was just a tad upset...
I popped open my trunk, and pulled out a tire plug kit, 12v air compressor, and a pair of wire cutters to pull out the nail. The look on his face...priceless!

Yeah, it was pretty funny when he said "Dude, my tire..$#@%&!!" I replied, "It's only flat on the bottom...could be worse.." wink He was amazed when I fixed it, without jacking it up or removing the wheel...guess he forgot that the front wheels steer.. laugh

A tire plug kit is fairly cheap and easy to use: Tire Repair
Keep in mind that I consider it to be a temporary repair, and the tire should be patched or replaced as necessary. In my friend's case, he needed new tires anyway, so no harm done. And at 1 AM, it beats having to call a tow truck... wink
