Id like to think of something appropriate to say that describes just what a dipstick he looks, but I think the video evidence is more than enough!

There's a video I was watching the other day where someone does similar in a corvette, he's literally doing the burnout (clutch that is) for ages & after you can hear the clutch & flywheel pinging it's so hot.

There's a better video of the one above, I'll see if I can find it. It shows the whole thing in shot, looks like he spots the police car and craps himself. How he managed to lose it like that in a straight line!

I love the fact he thinks he's doing a burnout but nothing is happening except his clutch is slipping! surely he could tell the difference between clutch slip and wheel spin?

I bet he wanted the ground to swallow him up! I don't know how some people have the front to just run up to the scene laughing and taking pics and video though. If I'd seen that I'd have felt embarrassed for the guy and stayed where I was.

I did read somewhere that it was the owners friend driving, not sure if that's true or not. Sheesh, can you imagine! He'll be going over that in his head for a while!

I see what happened to the second one. The van on the side of the road involved a slight turn of the steering wheel. With it being an american car, turning the steering wheel will end up in a crash.

The other thing as well, how much better does the mk2 focus RS sound the the dinosaur engine in the stang?!

Looks like the mustang drives onto the dirty dusty chevrons and looses traction on the right side.
