It's a pretty fun activity...until you sink your sled in 14 feet of water and it's 14ºF. Not that I would have any personal experience with this.

Careful, you are going to get sacked

This.

Putting an "oh" face on, indeed. GIS FTW.

It's a sliding scale. :-)

I love my motorcycle. I love going fast. Really fast. Every vehicle I have ever owned has been run up to it's top speed. I have no problem admitting that I have done some pretty stupid things and am lucky to be alive.

Since Lahjik's daily driver was a '68 stang, I would imagine this story could have taken place before the advent of EFI. Not that an EFI car can't be flooded by turning the key on and off a few times.

Why are they asking us for help? Don't they have tools to find the hidden resolution in the grainy security camera footage? Zoom, enhance, zoom, super-enhance. There it is: New Jersey plate 6YJ M5D, expired in Feb 12. He is wearing 34 slim Levis and his collar is a little bit frayed around the right edge with a…

It sure looks like there would have been room to help him out of there unless it was raining fire down on the rear half of the car. Rarely do cars explode into flames Hollywood style. I would even venture to blame Hollywood for making people afraid that a car will explode when the probability is very small, even in…

Oh my lord, I have had this on the top of my weekend-but-not-a-racecar list since I saw a cream/maroon one about a decade ago. Thanks for making me waste the next three hours of my life looking for one.

Parking like an asshat?

100% on the mark. I vividly remember going when my buddy took his private pilot multi engine license checkout test and the instructor killed one engine just as the plane was starting to pick up some speed on the takeoff. Fortunately, my buddy had been well trained and had chopped the throttle and settled the plane…

I think the word you are looking for is bollards. Unfortunately, that wouldn't have made a very entertaining video since the car would have just crashed out of frame.

Thanks, that clears things up. Far less interesting than I was expecting since I don't find most meme humor all that funny. I was really hoping to read about some jackweed stealing a car and getting caught red-handed on the fanboy forums. Just like I am hoping for the culprit in this current Syclone saga.

So, I have totally wasted about 20 minutes trying to figure this out on my own after seeing this dude's pictures posted here a few times...three in just this article. All permutations of the words steve, blue, orange, civic, wheels, stolen, backwards hat just give me a lot of nothing useful (except that apparently…

Any chance this amateur got some of them? He deserves multiple. Seems like this could be an easy money grab for the cops...just have one standing there with a radio and a couple of wolf packs down the road since it looks like there are only two ways out of that spot.

How cool that you can see the camera car at 0:06 in the original video. Good for us that the social structure is so fucked up over there that everyone has a video camera running all the time. I dread the day that happens here.

Oh, the irony in image #1

Now I can apply for a job as a navigator for Sebastien Loeb or one of those Solberg guys :-)

I have always been curious about the course note jargon but only seem to be able to pick up small bits and pieces watching in-car video. Any chance you can put the following into english?
