Stu Strickland @bus15237.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Skid mark from a car tire from very rapid acceleration on a left turn from a standstill. I can still smell the burning rubber. Now, as to why. 1/ 100
Stu Strickland @bus15237.bsky.social · 22/08/2026This is the corner of Center Ave and Perry Highway, Ross Township, just north of Pittsburgh. Both directions on Perry approaching this corner are downhills so despite the 35 mph. speed limit signs, traffic regularly exceeds 40 even 45 both ways. 2/ 100
Stu Strickland @bus15237.bsky.social · 22/08/2026Needless to say, this makes turns off Center, which ends there, very chancy. Hard acceleration often necessary getting out of there. The car this time was a high-powered Porsche. It takes some horsepower to leave a stripe for 100 feet. 3/ 100
