Can you explain " I need the back tire.... and maybe the brake"?
Asking for a friend
Have fun is my middle name! Arrived here in Gainesville last night about 3AM.

Back tire and the brake are grudge racing terms. Giving someone the "back tire" allows them to stage with there back tires to give them a car length head start. Giving someone "The Brake" or "The Move" is allowing them to leave first and you react to when their car leaves, then you go. So when I say I need the back tire and the brake, I'm basically just saying I need a pretty substantial head start.

The only street racing I know is from "Street Outlaws" but I believe they would call it "the hit."
