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...

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.
