Trust me a lot of cars are too much car for people on the track, and there is nothing wrong with that at all. I’ve seen a car totaled at nearly every single track day I have been to. And, newsflash!, it’s usually a Mustang. Because that car is generally too much of a car for people to handle as speed. My go-to…

Mythbusters did this already almost 15 years ago (Episode 144: Duct Tape Hour 2). At least these youtubers could be original.

I’d rather talk about that ‘60 Cadillac in the background.

All the stars for that “kids, don’t try this at home, unless you happen to be Bob Hoover” demo (speaking of northern California, an airshow at the former Hamilton AFB may have been where I saw it), and the reminder that a car with half decent aerodynamics doesn’t need that much horsepower for steady-state highway…

We had a Rabbit P/U as a shop truck when I wrenched on bikes. The low load height was perfect, even if a Goldwing would make it wobble like a waterbed. It was plenty fast for around town and limited freeway use.

Altima driver would have been my first choice.

Why you gotta put a Lexus driver on blast?

Oh Hell No.

Long time recreational scuba diving, here.

even that’s a better Coda than this car.

Our family car growing up was a 1930 Ford Model A pickup that Dad bought and restored before any of us were born. At the time, Dad took the bus to work and Mom piled us three kids in the A to run errands. (Yes, the 70s were a different time for kid safety in cars). Later, Mom and Dad were able to afford a used AMC…

XK120 works car in 1960

I thought our BMW 2000 was a cool car and along with a Road & Track subscription was my entry into car enthusiasm. Unfortunately I wasn’t along when Dad teat drove a Citroën SM. Oher than that, I got a ride in a Corvair Monza one time, and in 1977 a Honda Accord was new and hot. Later in life a college roommate had a…

I once got to ride in a LARC-V amphibious vehicle as a kid. That was pretty cool.

Countach. There was a repair shop just around the corner from my house. We knew the owner, he’d fix our bicycle tires for free a lot of times. Somehow he’d have crazy exotics, and when he did, my sister and I would go visit to have a look. And he’d give us a ride around the block. We were like 8 and 6 years old. Got…

I friend of mine had the mid ‘70's 2 door LTD. He also has dwarfism. Absolutely insane to see this little person (is that the PC version?) to get out of this car.

Well...there was the late-1920s Bentley—maybe a Red Label Tourer?—that my father stored and occasionally exercised for his cousin (40 years later, he’s still bitter that said cousin didn’t give him first refusal when he sold it). There was the Rolls-Royce two-seater of similar vintage that a friend of my grandmother’s…

My dad had a purple Iroc Camaro when I was a little kid that I don’t remember too much. I was always into cars but never really had the opportunity to ride in some cool stuff until later on in life. So hopefully this Kid at heart experience still counts. 23 years old I believe at the time, we had a lovely cars and…

Would have been around 1977. My dad took me to a local stock car track (Westgate Speedway, now Peterborough Speedway) and through some business connections, he knew the track manager and by default some guy who raced a stock car there regularly. We went to say hi to the guys in the pit after the races and the driver…

One of our neighbors in the very middle-working class subdivision we lived in during the 80's had a Ferrari 308 that he’d take me for rides in when I was about 8 years old. My older sister and his daughter were best friends so we knew them pretty well but could never figure out how he could afford such a nice car by…
