Both videos showed people TRYING to do something they thought they could do, that's the only thing I see that they have in common.
So what's the point?
Where are the real Corvette videos??

k-town is correct, and so is the darkknight; the TC was still on, AGAIN, and FOR THE LAST TIME, I could care less about the burnout - only an IDIOT would try and perfect a burnout on radial tires, burnouts are for SLICKS.

Correct.

You thought he was trying to fight? I don't know what you know or don't know about fighting but if you can't recognize the boxing skills that guy has you need to watch that video a little closer.

k-town, "You thought he was trying to fight? I don't know what you know or don't know about fighting but if you can't recognize the boxing skills that guy has you need to watch that video a little closer."
Lol, that's exactly what I thought - a bunch of rich white boy nerds on a corvette forum critiquing Kimbo - man they would get RAPED by that guy! Give me a f'n break. I'd demand $5G JUST to show up for a Kimbo fight, and I've been training for years...
StevieB, "The last frame of that video is absolutely grotesque, what a bunch of morons. If I want to see peoples faces mashed to pulp with their eyes hanging out I’ll go to rotten.com":
Stevie, they were fighting for money, I heard $3g for that one - "THAT'S HOW A ****A EAT!"
Also, k-town I posted an attn: thread to you on mma.tv, but I guess you never saw it - what kind of vette do you have? Post a pic... PLEASE, tell me it isn't yellow!!!

I am on the Forum because I love corvette's plain and simple, and I love learning about them and looking at them and to an extent living vicariously through some of the members here.
I am a dreamer gaining as much info as I can and seeing what is out there!

You really shouldn’t be making racial slurs here. I think that most forum members and moderators will take offense at that type of thing. Morons come in all shapes and colors, and those bare-knuckle fighters are just plain morons, regardless of what color they are. That video demonstrates how stupid and destructive street fighting is. Street racing falls into the same category, and they are both just plain dumb.
I now return you to your regularly scheduled program of CORVETTE VIDEOS.
