yeah its pretty hard to miss the rear end and a drive shaft. Also if its awd you will be able to see the gas tank standing behind the car.
I bought my car with crappy tires on it and when I finally put some good ones on there....wow..what a difference.
Have fun trying to lose traction!! Just the other night I was launching my car on some wet pavement and it stuck to the ground nicely.
