Potato in the tailpipe

[missileer]

Cecil is correct, the car will not run if the tailpipe is completely blocked. however, if you really want it to work well, core out the middle of the potato, then insert it deep into the tailpipe with a broom handle (carefully not to mash it).

The car will start and run fine. However, as soon as you press the gas down, it dies. It worked well for me to drive the gangbangers out of my neighborhood without doing any real damage. It's also funny to watch.
