Very entertaining. I remember the race scene in the Woodlands a few years ago. All I can do is shake my head about these idiots.

Looks like some proof that the news ones have a systemic problem as do some older Vettes letting loose upon straight line acceleration.

Just so smart coming out of a car show with cold tires and nailing it...

In many of those there was a bit more hp power than brain power.

I hate to admit it, but on cold tires the TC has pulled me back from the brink a time or two. Even at 40-50mph it will wag its *** under hard acceleration if they haven't heated.

Some are idiots like Ferris Bueller. Kid got ahold of dad's car!
Some must be drunk
Some seem like they try to get it loose and lose it
Some are poor driving conditions-not careful enough.
Others are racing and I can see something like this happening to me so I just drive and enjoy and stay well within the boundaries. No racing.
I learned my lesson racing motorcycles, it ain't worth it!!!
