I get in front of trucks all the time and let them do that to me. Saves gas.

Just sayin!

If you do it every day, the tires only wear out randomly. When I'm in front of the truck I dont have to really concentrate on driving, so I climb out on the roof and spray WD-40 on the tires. It seems to help.

The hardest part is taking an exit. If you exit right it's no problem, you just squeal the tires, turn the wheel heavy to the left and go.

When the exit is on the left, you have to turn your wheels to the right and execute a perfect 270 degree spin-out about a mile before.
