When I was first driving (100 yrs ago), we would go to empty shopping centers after hours & practice doing slides. The importance of this was learning how to counter-steer & etc.
Back then it was just for the fun of it..But one remembers how vehicles handle doing stuff like that.

We used to just do donuts...

Serpentine belt and tension-er installed thanks to a thread on this site which made it fairly easy. The hardest part was getting the inner plastic panels off, the rest went as outlined. If you've never replaced one, check out the thread on this site. I can tell you from experience that using a short/shallow 15 mm socket isnt the smart way to do this. Use a deep socket and an extension that makes it hard to pull the socket off. I used a shallow socket and a wobble style extension. As I pulled the socket out of the access hole, it caught and fell into the frame.--gone forever--I heard it rolling far down the frame. The previous owner must have swapped out the belt and tensioner, it was in very good shape for 182k. So, all caught up for now. Gonna switch over to E85 for a few tanks, I heard it gets any water out of the gas tank, ever heard of that theory before?
