Remember when a Nissan executive called GT-R owners "Parkinsons-ridden testicles with arms?" He should have called them "George of the Jungle." As in — watch out for that tree! More*»

hahaha what a dumbass

slowdriver i HIGHLY doubt he wasnt trying to "abuse" his expensive car. i think it was lack of knowledge on how a drag strip works...

*brndck* · 08-02-2010, 02:20 PM

hahaha fail
(for all the ppl who don't get it, the driver was still about 20 ft from the starting line when he launched. he didn't come up to the starting line "tree" and wait for a green, he just launched from the burnout box. what a 'tard.)

soreballz · 08-02-2010, 03:00 PM

That was amazing.

I like how the announcer said over the intercom that it was a cool car but dumb driver. Didn't even hesitate.

No bashing him for not realizing that the staging area is not where you start the 1320...

Have no idea how the hell drag racing works
(never was interested & not embarrassed to admit this).
So he launched from the wrong spot, big deal.
Not like anyone was hurt or anything got wrecked.
We all make newbie mistakes somewhere in life.

That's not the worst I have seen. I saw a guy in a s13 launch in reverse at Irwindale!!!

Yup, reverse!!!

If you wana go fast in a straight line.. buy a mustang, open up a summit magazine, $1500 later have a 11sec car.

that whole sport is pretty effortless/boring IMO.
