100km/h + no forward motion = locknut stays put = hoon.
(also = Smoke...  )

Lol something like that happened to me. The oil cap came off (I don't know how!) and I looked for it everywhere. What do you know, as soon as I buy a new one I found it near the plenum. I could of bought a 6 pack of beer instead of that oil cap.

I was replacing a battery once, left the spanner on the nut(god knows how or why) for a 500km drive. Only realised because I checked the oil for the return trip.

Found a socket, an extension and a spanner all sitting in the side of my engine bay a couple of weeks ago. Lucky Craig at ACE saw them sitting there.

Unless you are 25 years and one day old, you are still a hoon. Remember, its only under 25's that are hoons supposedly. LoL about the lock nut though.

one time i changed a headlight globe in my EA, and forgot to put the cover back over the socket, then about 2 weeks later i found it sitting down near the engine mount, and i hadn't got a new one either so it was all good.
