While trying to get my license signed off here to race quicker than 10.0[a license isnt needed until this time cut off in USA] on one of the runs the cabrio decided to what it does back home
but got a little out of shape in the process
Heres the video

That's frightening and amazingly fun
Imagine you are at the wheel. You have to think at one moment, " Mhhh, it's time to land..."

Hey i've never seen a Resto Cal pull a wheelie
I guess that video should be on the street cars launching thread. Look it drove all the way across the pond, I doubt even the best Schwimmwagen can't do that.

Did they allow you on the track with only one rear light working? I have heard rumours about the lousy tech inspections over there but I could never have guessed this... dam! That`s danger to you.

You truely are a sick man,but funny too
That rear light was bugging me all night,would work fine then go off in the burnout,then back on again but lights are no use when you can only see the dark sky anyway
and the bumpers are to comply with the califonia law,put them on for shipping to help protect the car and left the t bars at home so just left the bumpers on for now till I get a chance to pick them up,it sure does handle different when it hits the bumper though
