u mean u dont even put ur e-brake on? if i put it in the garage i usually just leave it in first but im now getting in a habit of using the e-brake. u kno what all those engine noises that were edited into that clip were from? well they were from moto gp and moto gp 2. if u win a certain amount of races u unlock things such as that noise for ur engine. pretty cool. thats a real fun game with xbox live

watch out of using the ebrake in cold temperatures when you leave the car for a long time, brakes freeze up~~!!!

just leave it in first, or 5th, or any gear for that matter, it wont go anywere

the ebrake is just for that! emergencies!

Well I just figured out how to leave an automatic in neutral. You just turn the car off, but leave it in drive or any other gear under neutral. After that you can leave it in neutral, drive, first, reverse or whatever. I wiuldnt try this except on flat ground though.

"Rice Central" is Peachtree City/Fayetteville Georgia man. The ratio of rice to non rice (this is just including modified cars) is probably at least 100:1, that's not an exaggeration. I've posted this several times actually, in the recurring "rice..." threads. What's sad is that my bone stock Sentra 2.0 could take half the lot, in part because they weigh their cars down so much with crap and in part cause they can't drive. On a side note, I saw the Hella STI today rolling into the big Hella buidling in town. That was sweet, even though I'm not into lighting.
