after watcdhing the vid , and reading the comments , if he was disqual'd after the first round ( or quals , whatever ) how did he make it back into the line-up , and actually onto the track?

The first stuffup was the marshals for letting him get onto the track , 2nd stuffup was aggrivating him by kicking the car , 3rd stuffup was not remaining calm and talking to him via the window... FFS , he's got a V8 cranking noise from an open exhaust and a helmet on, wouldnt it make more sense to be at his window talking directly to him?.

Summernats has slowly been going downhill IMHO.

im all for the car scene , but events like this are slowly going downhill
Getting too old for this s*#t!!

I got told by a mate that this was the last burnout of 2012 on sunday :lol:
(dunno wheather the very last or the last my mate saw?) but he rekons
that the announcer had said that the bloke before him was the last
and that most of the officals were down the end of the burnout strip when they
look around to see this bloke wanting another go after he'd been deemed
unworthy for Sunday as he'd smashed it on Saturday! Clearly a disgrunteled
customer and from what I was told he smashed the other side in that burout
to even things up abit!

And banned hahaha what a joke he'll just smash that engine in another car
get a mate to claim it's his (to enter) buy a silver pass at the gates with a
rediculously year grown beard and a somberra and then when in drive it
pretty much to his hearts content :lol: :lol:

Can see it now- Ebay: V8 drag car all running gear $2500 minus engine -minor damage :lol: :lol:

Must admit the first time I saw it was severly going down hill with stupid
idiots is a old bloke in I think a ford smoking it up in tuff street blew 1
tyre and instead of ceasing his burnout decides f#@k it I'll go the other one too
(dont get me wrong very entertaining) but 3 mins later when the
other one pops and the first hub is no where to be seen and he'd dug
a crater in the ground the idiot trys to still drive it to his tent about 30 mtrs up the road :roll:
And same thing where were the officals? Very suprised more people havent ended up crushed
dead under these cars as a result of clearly under the influence drivers such as the bloke in my story!!!!
