Those are all good ones.
How many have heard the term "stink-bugged"? It refers to a car being jacked up in the rear quite high. Popular back in the '70s.

My buddy did a Rockford in his dads 1970 Ford pickup with a 460 with an open rearend. It was a two lane county road and we passed eachother going opposite directions. We both stop and I look back and all I can see is smoke and the truck dissappeared. All of the sudden I see his truck rocketing backwards towards me and he cranks the front wheels. The truck starts it turn as the front wheels left the road and go into the gravel. The truck starts to turn over in the middle of the road and the door mirror touches the pavement and then it shoots back onto four wheels bouncing all over the place. You should of seen his face. He was ghost white when I got back to the truck just laughing my a$$ off. He drove the truck away but he broke one of the rear spring leafs. I will never forget it. It was one of the best smoke shows I have ever seen. Sorry for regressing.
