“ Can U Say HEMI / BLASPHEMI / HotRod.com

I’m not hating on the guy.

When I was having handling issues with my 12 second 4 speed car I felt it was irresponsible to drive it like that.

The guy in the other lane doesn’t want wiped out. Spectators don’t want run over.

It’s a wild car I get it. But at some point you have to get it under control.
He's not the type to do any of that. Unless you've tried to control a 600+ hp stick car(his is 1000+), then don't critique him. He didn't get squirrelly, it wasn't sketchy, the only thing that got hurt was his pride and the front wheels. And it blew up the internet. My car was on a full page in car craft in 2009, an article on suspension tech, all 4 tires off the ground. Did I mean to do that? Hell no. Did I real it in? Yep. Had to have both bogarts repaired and a new set of front tires as well. I learned to short shift when it came up too fast, if second didn't do it, then I went to third. He's doing a lot for a sport we all love, cars in general.

I get your point. After all that’s what racing is about.

And like I said, I’m not jealous at all about him having a blown hemi and I have a boat anchor.

Lol, wasn't implying you have a boat anchor, I'm just trying to shed some light on what it's like to try and get a street car to handle 1000+ hp, especially a stick. Just watch and enjoy.
