    ...
    my guess would be that since he's in a honda...
    1. he tried to take the driveway hill at an angle to keep from maxing out his torque lines (lol).
    2.It looks like he's lowered and doesn't want to scrape.
    or
    3. he failed (lol).

    He was trying not to scape but failed. But he did make it up.

    My friend's driveway is so ridiculously steep that my other friend managed to scrape the exhaust tip of his Suburban when he backed straight out.

    Mine is pretty flat though.

    I lowered my car some more and now I can't make it out my road. I even scrap the center of my car when I pull out my driveway. Good news is I don't drive my civic at all so no big deal.(not street legal...yet)

    I say dont move into houses with shitty driveways, learned the hardway and ruined my cat-converter, exhaust tips and front lip. Would have parked it in the street but I live on a corner that people never slow down at, so they would run straight into it and ride away.
