What a dummy. Back in the day when we used to race on the back roads. A guy blew his clucth thru the floor of his chevy. It was barely a streetable car. I couldnt blieve that he had no scatter shield. One piece hit him in the back of the leg. He was lucky all he got was a bad bruise.

How about this one...

Wow both are idiots. the first one was just a ricer poser wanabe but the second video was a drag racer, he should've known better when he saw the smoke coming through the floor, I don't think from the sound it was burnout smoke.

The sheet plastic passenger side window should have given us a clue. He made a video to remember. Probably a kid whose mommy & daddy buy it for him and can't figure out why it doesn't last.



I still remember the photo of Don Garlits clutch explosion where it cut the car in half as well as his foot! Here's some photos for the younger crowd. Evidentially there is no video of the incident.

On our last trip to Disney World(like 13 years ago?), I'd call out the miles on 75 to Don Garlits Drag Racing Museum and believe me, no one was interested. On the way back I did the same thing a couple tries but no one seemed interested. Well, right before the last exit to the museum, my wife goes " Well, are you going to go to Garlits?" and I did a quick maneuver to get off. We get out, go inside and what meets you at the entrance to the museum??? The Little Red Wagon, on display, standing on 2 wheels. The Snake and the Mongoose, Jungle Jim's cars, Swamp Rat 1,2,3 and on and on! My son liked it and my daughter and wife put on a good act! I'd recommend it to anyone. A nice 2-8 hour stop in Ocala.

I was in the passenger seat of a buddy's '64 vette, 427, 2-4bbl, aluminum heads. Easy 500+ horse. Cruising on the "circuit" in Asbury Park, NJ. We were doing the stoplight thing against somebody when Gregg shifted to 2nd and one of the halfshafts(right side) self-destructed and came up through the floor behind me. It was a good race, we had 'em, ended up coasting down Ocean Ave to the next town. Old memories. Bob
