+1, though newman did a pretty good job explaining it.
And waivers don’t mean shit. A good lawyer will spin that waiver to a jury and have them believing it’s an admission by the organizers that they were allowing people to do something that was likely to result in an accident.
Moar pics are needed
the title of this post is aweful, I did not learn anything besides how people thought it was SIQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ to watch a burn out in front of a car that was spinning its tires forward at them, and the driver was screaming “America Fuck Yeah” while during once again SIQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQQ burn outs!!!

for people as dumb as me I made a picture!
There’s a real easy to see which is more dangerous. Find me a video of someone doing a STATIONARY burnout and crashing.
Now find me a video of someone drifting and crashing.
It’s really hard to find examples of the former because it’s really hard to crash a car that’s not moving. The latter though, are EVERYWHERE, because the whole point of drifting is to put a car right on the edge of being out of control and hold it there at speed.
I totally agree with you but I thought it was dumb that they were calling one dangerous while the other not
I’m not sure they said that Newman’s was risk free , but worlds apart from the risk involved in drifting.
When would you like your cookie delivered.
All we are saying is that a waiver to jump a stationary car is not equal to a waiver to stand in the potential path of a speeding out of control vehicle.
PS whos bullhorn is at my store? I heard it was the NFG groups bullhorn?
LOL, I believe that it may be IanK’s. He is the only person that I know with a bullhorn.
All i know is there is a red and white bullhorn that has some how showed up at my store, if its Newmans I am going to put my sack on the mouth piece for getting me my own “drama” thread!
haha, but seriously man this picture is EXACTLY what happened that day. People were standing right where you marked “safe” in the picture. No one was in front of his car during the burnout in the “unsafe” area that you marked.
i think either way they can both be bad, what if the bike fell short and the person riding it ended up under a tire spinning at 100mph? i’m sure thats just as much damage as a car hitting you at 60 or so
a waiver is a waiver, if someone had gotten hurt doing the bike thing, i’m sure they still would have taken the track or whoever to court over it
This is still going on?
Early next week, if possible. Thanks. 
i didn’t see this thread till today hah
BINGO, now I am getting him a cookie!
Skurge and AndyB a match made in heaven?
Another picture of how things went down, with Google earth scale:
^thats not fair using technology against me, thats cheating!
Impossible. The ramp was literally next to the car:
But you do point out another difference between these two situations;
Bike jump = human in motion, vehicle stationary.
Drifting = vehicle in motion, human stationary.
Which do you think would be worse if the human and vehicle collided?
