    i alreaydy see that on tv. its not a spair tire its a setup to make the car spin on himself like crazy. i think they call it the vominator or something like this

    • matt416 says:

      That’d only work if it was in the middle. Since it’s on a side, and the car is balanced, it acts like a normal wheel.

      • JDog says:

        That would only work if it was a front wheel drive car. If the car is rear wheel drive, then torque is only being applied to the other rear wheel, and it would certainly try to spin in circles.

        • oKtosiTe says:

          The Golf/Rabbit is a front-wheel drive, and if that wheel rotates around a vertical axis, and it looks like it might, it will not act as a normal wheel.

    • jim says:

      Golfdor the Vomininator!

  2. Rob says:

    Hehe, it’s like a peg-leg, but for a car. It’s a carrr!

  3. Ben says:

    It also appears that they fixed the passenger seat belt with a length of chain.

  4. jason says:

    Speed bumps or pot holes anyone?

  5. Donnie says:

    It really does hurt my feelings that everyone is making fun of my car!

  6. Kiki says:

    They see me rollin’
    They hatin’

  7. Jncarlos says:

    there is no way that actually works… no brakes?

  8. Muffy says:

    Reminds me of the time I saw a car in a parking lot with a flat tire. Sadly, it was the spare emergency tire that comes with every new car. Not sure how the owner was going to get home that night.

  9. yenna says:

    We had to drive in something like this in drivers ed. It’s to simulate the car sliding on ice or some such surface. rather fun, actually.

  10. Bango Jango says:

    There is no way that wheel is strong enough to take all the stresses and strains of the road.

    yeah that reminds me of the time i had a flat tire, then i got out the spare after digging in the trunk to get to it and put it on the car. 100 feet down the road the spare went flat and the other people in the car decided that the other tire would be better than a flat spare so we went through that all over again. did i mention that the first rim had rusted to the axle so bad that it took a 300 pould guy to jump up and down on it to get it loose. yeah fun times

    It’s called “American Ingenuity”.

    • STEVE! says:

      AMERICAN Ingenuity?!?! AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!
      thats such a hilarious concept
      Super sonic planes were invented by the british, the american government asked to see British intel in return for thiers
      britain revealed first and america did not return the favour. Yes americans are thieves
      and also your F22 raptor is no match for british fighters
      hence why your defence government wont let us have one to try out
      americans dont have ingenuity
      just what they steal of the british

      • Boba Fett says:

        Yeah. It was very ingenious of us.

      • STEVE!, for the record…
        .
        The first aircraft to transition into controlled supersonic level flight, was the American, Bell X-1, on 14 October 1947, piloted by Charles “Chuck” Yeager, reaching a speed of Mach 1.06 (807.2 mph).
        (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_X-1#Mach_1_flight)
        .
        The last British-designed fighter plane, was the “Harrier”, in the 1970′s. (Unless you count the Eurofighter Typhoon, which was jointly designed by Britain, Germany, Spain and Italy.)
        British Ministry of Defence has committed over $2 billion dollars, as a “Tier 1″ development partner, to the American, Lockheed F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, and has pledged to purchase 150 of the aircraft for both the RAF and Royal Navy.

        Now please, shut your moronic limey gob.

  13. Darcy Clay says:

    VERY spare!

  14. Dusik says:

    this is hilarious!

  15. Clara Rose says:

    I loved it, unreal of course, but made me smile. very good, thank you.

  16. Aaa says:

    Isn’t this just a “dolly” wheel or something like that which is used to move a damaged car around the shop?

  17. Ellie says:

    Rob :
    Hehe, it’s like a peg-leg, but for a car. It’s a carrr!

    HILARIOUS!!

  18. jim says:

    @Aaa
    Yes it is. Most auto shops use an arrangement like this when they move a car out onto the lot when they’re waiting for parts. Saves putting it all back together just to move the vehicle.

  19. paul__dl says:

    @Ellie
    seconded. laughed mfao.

  20. gidit says:

    Now someone needs to do a shopping cart wheel on a car.

  21. Complicated says:

    Yup the cost of time to put the broken assembly on and the time to manage said assembly of broken assembly to move to the lot, and back and take it off… heck. Just throw a caster on it! LOL.

  22. Complicated says:

    Great demonstration of Cost Benefit Analysis, now only if we can convince our governments to use the same idea.

  23. zxcvb says:

    This car was fixed under the new GM warranty.

  24. sutashu says:

    Actually, these are special wheels for drifting training. http://www.stan-mot.pl/poslizg.htm

  25. =j says:

    Needs more low.

  26. IceMan says:

    I’ve seen these. We use them up here in Canada to simulate driving on icy roads. Some driver training schools use them so if you start to lose control of the car, you know what to do to regain it. PROTIP: It’s not the brake you want to use.

  27. The Cat says:

    Rob :
    Hehe, it’s like a peg-leg, but for a car. It’s a carrr!

    Epic win.

  28. Teh Skitch says:

    @Rob
    Bip.

  29. Raul says:

    I hope it’s not a rear-wheel drive!

  30. WTF says:

    It lookz like sumffin mi dad would use on da raly cars when u he was drunk

  31. Anders says:

    Det er godt lavet :-)

  32. Anders says:

    Anders :Det er godt lavet

    @Anders

  33. dave says:

    funny..yes, impressive…no. if you want to impress me, put one on the front too, then let’s see you get to auto zone

  34. Robin says:

    Well, accidential switches happens. The shoppingcart looks even more stupid but at least, it stopped drifting to the left.

  35. Yuri says:

    Soooooooo bizarre! Love it!

  36. Luigi_fan_12 says:

    Can i do this with my bike?

  37. e p training says:

    Is this for real. Can’t see it going very far.

  38. kat says:

  39. Oddly enough, this is street legal in Wyoming.
