WOT= Wide open throttle....

You drive WOT by pressing the pedal to the floor.

EDIT: Gas pedal I mean, hopefully you already havent tried it with the brake pedal, cause then you'll hear some screetching and you end up coming to a stop.....

LOL we gotta have a sticky with all the abreviations. you could just PM the person who used it and ask them, its better for 2 reasons

1) you dont look like a big n00b infront of everyone
2) you save web space

dont worry, we all asked this question too. none of us were born knowin these terms

Actually you're all WRONG. WOT mean With Out Tires. It's not the best thing for your rims but it looks awesome at night. I bough a set of VOLK rims just for that.




J/K WOT= wide open throttle.

That's all right. It takes a little while to figure out the alien language that everyone around here speaks.
My thing is, "Is it really all that hard to just type out the whole thing that you are talking about?"

I know that it would be good to abbreviate things like MEVI(Middle Eastern Variable Intake), but most other things are not all that hard to type. I just think that most people "hunt & peck" type and that is why.

1. Come on, it could happen. I dreamed about it, like 6 times last night....it's gonna happen. Dammit, probally not.


2. Never knew what "woot" meant/came from/etc. Just kinda jumped on the bandwagon with it. Actually, come to think of it, i don't think i've ever used it before this post. Woot.
