Haha, girls aren't supposed to be cool - where'd this one come from?

BTW, all, you can "backwards" chirp 1-2, and this would not really be something to be proud of. I'm not sure if there's a technical name for it, but the idea is that as you shift into 2nd (or any gear) and give it gas, you disengaged the clutch without enough gas and the tires actualy slide a bit because the car is traveling faster than the wheels are turning - but it sounds almost the same.

I've actually done it in my car, but someone (Lips2000) had to point it out to me (he was riding with me).
