I know, right? All of them with their Ford pickups, cowboy hats and cowboy boots. Spitting dip everywhere.

OP: Don't blame that on the car, blame it on the driver. That moron had NO idea wtf he was doing. Watch the line he takes into and out of the first turn. He shouldn't be allowed near a track.

Can't watch the video due to corporate internet filtering.

But the only place I know of where that could have happened was at the little Seekonk bullring in Massachusetts on a spectator drags night. Sometimes, a driver's vision gets clouded over with the red mist. Just about the time he runs out of talent.

You say race at your own risk, very true. But that was BS, Jeep didn't sign up for a delolition derby. I'd say there's some off track payback in order.

I'd have killed the guy in the Blazer and be in prison. Oh and the guy in the Max went into that turn WAY too fast. Did you notice how fast he catching up to the Mustang?

I actually saw this vid a few weeks back and researched. Apparently, that race track, Beech Ridge has these amateur nights where the audience comes to expect the rubbing, bumping, and the occasional rough play we see here. It's almost expected. From what I could get out of it, two things were said of the Jeep owner. He thought he was too fast to get hit, and he never expected someone to hit him.

If you search, most all of the videos from that track all end up pretty much the same. To win is to cheat...

...not quite right, but it allows for soem internet humor.

He didn't go into the turn to fast....He applied his brakes too hard, instead of downshifting a slight bit and controlling his car with the throttle.....

That Jeep video got me so angry. This is my one time at e-thugging, but the owner of that Blazer would be eating through a straw after that move.
