stay stetti...
So Stetti = steady = car is layed out on all 4 wheels, oil pan, and pinching axles so it can't move? 
That's pretty steady. That's the only thing I can assume.
I'm joking about the frush stuff, I get what's goign on with the stance movement even if I won't do it, some of the new phrases just boggle me. I wasn't trying to poke fun, I'm actually curious where the statements evolved from - I'm a linguistics nerd (among other things).

I understand completely what you are saying here, however when the style in question renders the vehicle unsafe in a few ways, I'd rather they not show up at the meet. I don't want to be rollin next to a car on super stretched tires for my own safety. My opinion.. everyone's a critic .. I like how this community mixes things up with looks and mods. Trends and fads come and go. Unsafe trends have been around since the beginning. I remember when i was into choppers and a lot of guys wanted to rig up a suicide clutch. Such a stupid and unsafe idea but a ton of guys did it. That trend died, and so will this one. Unfortunately, I think it's going to get much worse before it fizzles out.
yeah i get what you mean.. "unsafe" but alot of things going on are unsafe... 600 whp daily driver is "unsafe"...AND yeah stretched tires is a trend right now, and it might fade away... but at least some of us will have had the chance to enjoy it... but like i said, everyone is different...

a 600+ hp daily driver is "unsafe" when your actually using it on the street, but who uses that much power on the road in a safely way?, other than track or autoX, etc... im not trying to argue about anything, i get what your saying and getting at, and its all good man... that car is bad *** tho.. prob worth more than what i make in 10 years ha ha...

if stretched tires were unsafe, then why are some track cars using them? and why do drifters run stretched tires. theyre the only ones who put enough g's into the tire to make it unsafe, and yet, they still do it!

Now that makes perfect sense!
And that GF8 is Abbitt's

Here's yer "stanced" Lego......I just do it with a meaty tire instead of wide wheel and stretch.
