A great video. Reminded me of last weekend. By the way Buana, turn in the direction of the skid.

One big issue I have is how the crowd reacts. They want to see wrecks.  That really bothers me. I was pulling duty of corner flags at a race one weekend, and find a couple of young 20 year olds participating just so they can watch the cars spin and wreck. I've never been to a NASCAR event, but I understand a big percentage of the spectators are there for the pile ups. Everyone wants to see a train wreck. That just makes my stomach hurt........
(Then again, I never did like "I Love Lucy". The ultimate train wreck)
Am I wrong  ?

Mine too. Just get queasy. I must be getting old. Didn't used to bother me but I guess having been in that position and feeling so helpless, kinda turning around, in slow motion, hoping like hell not to hit anything, it takes me back. It scoots out from under you SO quickly. Then you're just along for the ride.
Hey this will be fun, oh no, don't hit anything, don't tear anything up...

I'm glad you raised your engine Richard or it would have been still sitting there.
I heard you leave and was worried when I looked up and saw the back of your baseball cap going the wrong way. I didn't get to see it live but I asked the kid that posted it on youtube to show me his video. Glad all that happened was slap on the head.
We looked up and I saw this Viper coming right at me so that was the end of my viewing. These guys only wanted to see a crash.
I saw this guy leave in a `94 XJ with his son in a carseat that got it sideways and I felt like it's time to go home.
Kudo's to those who left the back way and not on the access road.
You can bet TX finest will be there next coffee Saturday.
I thought it was a great show and think it warrants a regular visit.

hey most of the kids cheering drive a honda accord with the small engine... These things are easy to get a little sideways.
Good thing no one got hurt... so can I be the one to point out that no one should have been gunning it with a crowd next to them. Even though there is a good chance I would have done it also... not really a good idea (wow I am getting old for sure)
hey Richard is famous now... 500 hits on that video.
See you Saturday

Not exactly how I wanted to become famous, I would rather had been know for curing some dreaded disease___like stupidity, although this has made great strides in curing my own.

Well I may or may not have the Mustang for Saturday. I do have it right now, but I am completely not happy with the aftermarket header panel that the ins co forced the body shop to use. The headlights are not even, the bumper sags down. The headlights also only loosely fit in. They won't fall out, but they bounce around and I refuse to accept that.

Same time, Same place, Starbucks located on SE corner of Parker and Toll Road at 8:00 to 8:15, then Stage in the Tinsletown lot at 8:20, and depart. This time let's all remember, cold tires, cold pavement, cold brakes, and cold brains! See ya Sat.

I will have the Mustang but I will likely just park in the spectator since the new header panel is not in yet. See everyone tomorrow morning.
