If I tried that in my f-body - I'd have chunks of a 10 bolt scattered throughout the parking lot.

Hi guys, I'm the one of the video, after reviewing some comments I felt like I should register and answer some comments.

I know it is pretty controversial for some people, and they claim that I'm hurting the car (I belive I'm hurting the tires), well, may be I am, but it is all part of having fun with your beast (be american or german beast), many of you don't have the b....guts to do it, and many of you claim not to be crazy to do that to any car, why not?

I really don't see how that can hurt the ar, hitting a curb hurts more than that.

Anyway, I'm glad some of you liked it, I just did it for the fun, I was getting new tires that day BTW

Thanks Mike
