Looked liked a meat head doing something the track guys didn't want him to do. I'm guessing it was a burn-out contest because of the skinny tires and all that water and all the rubber on the track.

Thanks for putting that up. Was just kidding about the drifting I get that but al of the ones I've seen require you to stay straight. It seemed like they were PO'd at the guy before he even started???

Photobucket sucks

I guess I don't understand how he even got back to the staging lanes. Around here you'd be escorted off the property. Did the car not have an on-off swtich on the back? Guessing that's the last time he did a burn out at that track.

Any yingyanger can do that, haven't you ever driven on ice? Like what was said, that car didn't have any of the proper safety equipment on it to be driving it like that. That clown is lucky nothing got tossed into the crowd.

And then people will complain that nhra makes to many rules, and say the burn out car doesn't have enought safty equipment on it, go figure. If you think you we be hurt run away, why do we need tons more rules. Last edited by 1967DartGT; 01/09/12 11:58 PM. Brett Miller W9 cnc'd heads STR Chassis fabraction
