Watching Bathurst on sunday and they kept calling anything a "bit of kit", including a teams transporter!

But a skid is a locked tyre attempting to stop. A burnout is a tyre accelerating faster than the car is moving.
Yup, that "Bit of Kit" is a pommy thing. I had a go at the missus the other day when she asked me for a Flash Light!
Watching the Footy Show and in a Vox Pop one player said he had to buy Diapers on the way home.

So far the Mexicans still call a Mall a Mal so it's not all bad YET!

I did "Skids" on my pushie when I was a kid.
