Default Hilarious (short) burnout ending

Camaro burnout from Sweden ... https://www.yahoo.com/autos/s/classi...161300713.html

Of course, it probably wasn't so funny for the owner/driver, but it was fun to watch.

I watched. I cringed.

This has to be a big reason why front wheel drive cars became the norm.

I didn't cringe, I admit. Had it been a 70-73 or a T/A such as a "Bandit" car, that'd be different. Besides, it wasn't likely too damaged, but that light pole make it friggin' funny!

Btw... what year is that one, anybody? Could be a 74-77, but I think that's all.

Video quality wasn't the best, so I can't tell. I cringe because the car looked to be in great shape. A lot of great looking cars have the misfortune of being owned by jackasses. This car may not have set the high mark at a Barret Jackson auction, but it looked nice to me. So I cringe...

It looked fine for what it is, I agree. Of course, I was never really a fan of the post 73 Camaro tail lights and lackluster engines... which was more or less the case till 1986. That, of course, excludes Firebird/Trans Am.

Still, I don't think it was hurt much.
