J Turns and Donuts

Every Saturday, participants post photos based on a theme. The theme for this Saturday, April 12, 2008 is TWISTED.

Last Sunday, we went to see the Manila International Auto Show. The highlight of our trip was watching the Russ Swift Precision Driving stunt which was also our second time to watch. The children of course had a great time. They readily posed inside the twisted tire tracks made by burning rubber when Russ did J turns and Donuts. A J-Turn is a driving maneuver used to reverse a backwards-traveling vehicle so as to continue driving in the same direction, but with the vehicle pointed forward, according to Wikipedia. Donuts, well, these are 360 degrees turns that make the car’s tires screech and burn, leaving tire tracks on pavement. Exciting isn’t it?
