[QUOTE="rarefish383, post: 6538774, member: 42490"] One of the car units was called a stickler, I think. You had to take the wheel off and it bolted to the lugs. You also had to jack one wheel up off the ground, so it was a bit wobbly, and don't try it with a car with "Posi Track". One of those inventions that looks really cool to Harry Homeowner, but is worthless in any kind of production sense. As Neil noted it works best with longer pieces so they lock into the ground when they start spinning. If it's not long enough when the screw grabs it, it will kick a big divot out of the ground and start spinning like Thor's Hammer. The only way to stop it is jump in the car and put the breaks on, or turn the engine off. I don't know how hard they are to unscrew if it doesn't split, like a nasty piece of Elm, Joe. [/QUOTE]
