Last night in Memphis a funny car did an exhibition burnout, and ran into a crowd.

just watched the video. tells more background than teh article. apparently they do this every year, and race down the highway. wtf are you doing racing a car like that on the street??? thats a no-brainer. i can see doing a burnout for the crowd, but hell, he was on it laying it out over the line to half track type of burnout.
