Burnout in front of ricer shop
Was this someone who works for Nelson or someone who hangs out there? IMO this gives Nelson a very poor image, even if that person does not work there. I would be furious if my shop was named in a video like this.
Removing the front brakes was for a truck that will only see track use and street racing on a closed road that is only me and the other racer. To validate my question(since you brought it up) The track official I talked to saw no problems with it and he said I should be able to run at any track in the country without front brakes. Back to this thread.
I have done some stupid stuff but to put your self in a situation that you compleatly loose controll in fairly heavy traffic is beyond "dumb ****". A big fat burnout in front of the other shop is awesome. For him to keep rolling at 40-60 and loosing controll is taking it too far.

We all do dumb things that sometimes, event, endanger life occasionally. The key is to do everything you can to make it your life the only one that could be taken if things go awry. This doesn't fit that criteria.
not women, just non-endorsers of idiocy.

I wonder what would happen if a state trooper sees this brilliant post and investigates just a little?? I bet you would not laugh like a witch on crack after that, huh?

Not to mention racing, alcohol, drugs, old and young ppl driving that shouldn't be, the list goes on and on.
Most of these scenarios are intentional some by accident, but to get so bent cause someone did a burn out and wiped out is...
I guess my point is, regardless of what you post or what your opinion is, it's not going to matter, the majority of us are still gonna speed, race, burnout, be stupid on the road.
Look at all the forums, check out the Kill Stories or Vids section, it's full of ppl doing dangerous stuff, and we're still gonna do it, regardless.
I do not condone or discourage this type of behavior. I for one, have actually calmed down quite a bit, however, I'm still guilty.
Please don't take this as an attack, this is simply my opinion.
Nobody was hurt or jailed, so lesson not learned.

Point taken. All of us like to drive fast, if we didn't we wouldn't be on here or own the cars that we do. It's easy for people to preach on here, I just think it ruffles some feathers when a situation like the one in the video is passed off as not a big deal. I think everyone can agree that the video was a good example a bad time and place to do that.
