Hadn't thought of that. But, hey, between an e-brake on one wheel and the
other half of the rear end dragging the ground, sounds like more fun than an
E-Ticket ride at Disney (Though I'm probably showing age; they haven't used
those in years

On a funny note, as a teen I had a Bradley GT kit car on a '60 chassis, 10"
wide rims in the back. Had just argued with the GF, but she bolted right
rear wheel on while I bolted the left.

Left, with her, my brother, and 2 friends (remember being 17 and fitting 5
people into a 2-seater?). About 1-1/2 miles from home, the car suddenly
shook, then swerved, then dropped, leaving a 30' gash in a lady's front
lawn, while we watched a wayward right rear wheel continue to head down
Granada Blvd., stopping about a block farther down.

Ah, the days!
