With all due respect Mr. McMahon, the gentleman driving Cobra number 48 in your video clearly "get's on it" in a left turn and continues to speed up until he crashes into the curb.

I hardly see this as the same as a Cobra stopping in a parade and doing a "small burnout". Most stuck throttles are at 75 - 100% of the gas pedal being engaged and I would expect that most Cobra owners can tap the gas and get a small burnout.

My opinion of the Tennessee tragedy is that this event shouldn't have allowed ANY car to "drag race" through a packed city street. We have several parades in the Kansas City area and a 350 - 700 horsepower Mustang or Corvette stopping and doing a half a car length "burnout" and a Pro Modified 6 second Mustang or Corvette doind a 140+ MPH "drag run" are very different.
