I think the Donk scene is just as stupid as the "stance" crowd. Whenever I see stretched tires and massive camber I giggle a little bit. Same for any car with 30" wheels and 2ft lift...

To each their own, etc etc.

Not saying I'm right but that could be a photoshoped rx8 on that wheel setup. I saw that well setup on a monte Carlo called. "Donkey Kong"

That RX8 looks chopped, but you would seriously win at the internet and life if you donked out a Fers or a Berz. I think you should put it on Kickstarter; I will gladly donate money to your cause. More importantly, what theme would you go with? Something Jesus sounds appropriate...

There's a video out there...I think it showed up in one of the stance/hellaflush bashing threads that ran a month or so ago. But there is a donk car drifting in it. Hilarious.

I just want to thank you for knowing that it is "etc" and not "ect".

Oh, as to the original question:

No donks because it's a freaking sports car and they don't belong on it.
No spinners because they add extra unsprung weight and it's a freaking sports car and that doesn't belong on it.
