The wife and I went out to the track last night. We were letting the car cool down so we went in the stands to watch the cars. There was a early model chevy 11 in the box so he pulls up stages proceeds to pull a huge wheelie scrapes the wall, gets out of it bounces once hits it again looses control crosses both lanes and hits the opposite wall at a 45 angle spins then gets the wall again. When it finally stops he gets out of the car and is jumping around pumping his fist like he has really done something. His car is totally destroyed and he is acting like he won the whole shabang. The wife and I just looked at each other and said sure am glad there was no one else in the other lane. Anyone else witnessed anything this bizarre.

With reality TV, DC politics and Youtube getting the attention they do these days, it seems more and more people think they are "entitled" to be idiots and get rewarded for it. Not that long ago idiots doing antics like that would never be allowed at the track again.
Mopar to the bone!!!

I dont care to watch a vid of people doing no brainer stuff... if you loose it... you get it shut down ASAP and thats it... save it for another run... my junk isnt the nicest of cars but it is to me.. so if I even have to get out of the pedal.. that run is over.. thats also why I've never blown a 727

He is still in it after he looses the tire and after he hits the other wall. Gets out does his litte victory dance. I was in the staging lanes when he left and he was gassing his tow rig and honking his horn as he left. I have been going to the track for 50 years and never witnessed anything more ignorant in my life.

Yes a few years ago at a Nostaglia race at my local track my friend was racing his really nice 66 Biscayne wagon against a guy in a T bucket roadster. the guy in the T bucket loses it and starts spinning around hitting my friends wagon.My friend was really upset , why didn`t the clown just let off the gas, after my friend cooled down we went over to the T bucket guy and he was more worried about being able to drive home, meanwhile my buddies rear door and quarter panel were damaged. Mr T bucket wasn`t being to cooperative so rather than start a fight we walked away and figured to come back a little later, next thing we know he's heading out the gate. He never came back for any other nostalgia meets and the track tech guy kind of knows him and said he even said he owns a body shop and is a weird guy.
