Nice burnout for sure.

I just don't understand the walking guys thinking. Is he trying to get himself run over or is he just trying to get in the picture?

Yeah, that guy walking around the car can't have too many marbels in a row. Come to think of it, I don't think anyone in that video does.

What's so special about that? I do that all the time with my 91...........

Really, I drive like an old man because every time I get into one of my corvettes I think about the cost of new parts if I break something......

I'll never understand why people do stuff like that. I mean, it's not like I can't afford a set of tires, but why would you want to? Lets see ... I can ruin my tires, over-rev my engine, make a bunch of stinky white smoke, and look like a moron doing it??!! Where do I sign???

I can though, relate to a real burn out... Holding one's foot on the brake is BS IMHO Muddy

Well fellas....if you enjoy drag racing as much as I do, it`s fun once in awhile. Although I wouldn`t do that to my Vette since it`s only 180hp and is 95% original, I do have a 69 Chevelle that`s built for it.

The gene pool where that fellow lives is pretty shallow. Possible Darwin Award nominee for that lost soul who walks around the front of the car.

Well, that's nothing compared to the idiot that was walking in front of the car while he was doing it.

Not sure I'd want to sign up for the latter.
