Is there a thread for 'people doing stupid things in their brand new car' thread?
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUNywnlZ5d0"]DTA SCION FR-S DOING HER FIRST BURNOUT - YouTube[/ame]
|
I cringed a lot looking at that.
|
wow... neighbors must love these guys
|
yep- this is the new civic si folks, get used to it..
|
OMG, that poor car. :paddle:
|
Those guys are stupider than their clothing company.
|
repost but I agree.... and they're local to me.
sweet move, but seriously... in a small area, broad daylight, with people, cars, dog, etc. AND in a brand new car AND from my local dealership = fail ... I wear DTA clothes too -___- but it was to support Gush. |
I've never understood the point of a burnout (aside from before making a pass at the strip).
|
Bad thing is he lives in the same area as me and i'm scared someone will mistake me for this idiot. Good thing is the local junkyard will have some spare parts just in case I need something for my FRS. I'm guessing this car is wrecked by now
|
Sorry guys but that was pretty awesome. Who cares if he messes up his own car.
|
Isnt this the whole point of the car? I see nothing wrong with this video, besides skipping the break in procedure lol

On public streets in broad daylight - no There's nothing wrong with burnouts or stupid maneuvers in a controlled environment. When you leave a controlled environemnt, you are putting yourself(driver), friends(passenger, camera man) and strangers(pedestrians, cars parked or moving, neighbors) at a huge risk of harm or misfortune. Not to mention property damage and burnout marks that are out front of your house until the street gets paved again. If it was at the track, I'd laugh with you. On the street, I'm laughing at you and waiting for you to get yours. |
The last track I was at actually had a no-burnout rule, so you can't even do this at the track haha
To be totally honest, I kinda give him credit for handbrake sliding the car 180 degrees on that narrow, steep street. I was expecting him to take out the camera guy or another car. |

Easy guys. I'm not makin a pissing match. I think it's a great video and chuckled a bit. The thing is - he could have easily lost control and caused any number of bad things to the cars/property around him.
What is the one thing that causes every get-together/meet to be busted or shut down? Some asshat doing burnouts. There is a time and a place for everything. The reason I drive an auto is bad knees/ankles/back. I've always driven a MT before my 92x Saabaru. With this car it was a real tough choice but as my daily the auto kicks all ass. You can rationailze this how ever you want. @_hollywood On my side - I'd be safe driving home from having fun at the track. On your side - You'd be unsafe, arrested, in an accident and/or hated by your other car guys/neighbors. I think this is a good example of people doing stupid things in their brand new cars. |
I've got no problems with him doing the things he did, it was actually a pretty good burnout and not a bad 180. Still cringe a bit seeing it happen in what is basically a narrow-road neighbourhood though. I wouldn't want someone doing that on the street in front of my house.

If I saw some asshat do this outside my house I'd have a tough time not beating the shit out of him... I just can't imagine how people can justify this??? They couldn't find an abandoned road, empty parking lot, anything other than a very tight, highly f'ing residential street lined with cars, bushes, etc...unreal..... |

The kids will make mistakes and we will hopefully always be there to give them some guidance and a band-aid. |

:word:QFT. Amen brudda. Now take a deep breath, lean back and let the boys be boys. On to some more burnouts! [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yosKCasgJTw"]BRZ Burnout.wmv - YouTube[/ame] |
Empty parking lot in what looks to be an industrial area. I'm cool with that. Little city street in a residential area, go to jail go directly to jail, part out the car and give us the bits and pieces!

:sigh: ... Thanks for indulging...I'm done. :happy0180: |
The burn out isn't so bad till he takes off.. He is just sitting there.. A cop would've given him a citation but not arrested him.. The ebrake slide and the driving fast down the road is un called for..
|
Sorry, but in my eyes the burnout is pretty bad. Somebody does that in front of my house while I'm homeand it's going to get ugly. I don't want to look at that every day for the next few years.
|
anybody watch the other vids in that? The "wife reaction" had some type of match for every married man in this joint I bet. My wifes reaction was one of those.
|
Stupid. It is a narrow, public street. At least do it somewhere where there is more room and not so many articles of other peoples' property to damage...
|
Everybody calm down, i think we all have done something similiar to this,even just today i spun my tires accidentally in the snow,i thought about this thread and i decided to get out of my car and apologize to everyone in the nearby area, and offered counseling to those who witnessed my lack of judgement, i also didnt want anybody to " beat the hell out of me" for being reckless .....i am a menace to society apparantly.

Sorry, no excuse for what they did in a neighborhood. Your tires turning over on the snow is a tad different than you sitting and blatantly doing what they did.
|
I think that even though it was dummer than a fart in a space suit to do a burnout in a tight street like that i have done probably worse and live to tell about it. My friends would do burnouts like that in front of my house whenever they would drive by. Yes my dad was NOT happy. Kids will be kids and let us all lighten up.
P.S. I did grow out of the stupid driving crap and that IS why i now autocross. :burnrubber: |
This topic is funny.
|
Reminds me of NASIOC where everyone on the forum pretended to be angels that never exceeded the speed limit by 1 mph. C'mon man
|
Doesn't quite fit the theme of the thread but
