Anyways,...



Link to said Supra?? That thing sounds like a beast

Selmer, TN Car Show Disaster - YouTube

That happened here in TN. 7 people died. He had permission to do the burnout. You can't so much as chirp your tires without having someone breathing down your neck now. Wasn't very long before that, that a kid lost control of a modified Viper during a burnout and killed some people.

YEP!!!

Not to mention hot rubber, rocks, and other debris flying at you or your kids. It was a stupid stunt, but one that had been performed there before in years previous.

As I always preach, there is a time and a place for everything.

False, Rex broke the centre piece in his V160 tranny thursday night, and spent all day friday (during the dyno) looking for a transmission, luckily with the help of a few people he found one, and swapped trannies in the parking lot friday night and part of saturday, as far as i know he ran saturday night again.
