People like different things to you.. On the burnout what a burnout.... haha loved it... Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

If your driving down the road and do something like that, you know you are breaking rules and if caught will get into trouble... This guy knew there were rules to abide by and he almost ran people over while breaking those rules? Doesn't get much more retarded than that I would think... Its thanks to guys like this, that modified car owners have such a bad reputation in the media etc for being 'rule breakers' Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

Like he said himself, he was wrong with what he did, and how he reacted. But, if you've built a car specifically for events such as Summernats (and powercruise etc), and you weren't allowed to compete in the knock out rounds of a burnout competition due to a break down in communication, and knowledge of the rules by the marshalls i think being annoyed is justified. Up to that point he had done nothing wrong.. Maybe the staff there need better training, and knowledge on not just the rules, but also on how to deal with situations such as these. And lets face it, the security doesn't exactly have the best reputation at Summernats for how they have dealt with competitors either. Not justifying what happened, but don't think he's "retarded" for what he did....

Thats fair enough although just to clarify I wasnt calling him retarded, just what he did...

All you guys that are saying rules are rules, and they must be obeyed I do agree. But what right does that give security to "kick" his car? Im sure most of us have ****ed up out at a night club, i know I have. Does that mean the security should come kick me or hit me? No, they should do there job. End of the day yes he did the wrong thing in the first place BUT NOTHING justifies what security did to him. NOTHING!!! My 2 cents...

X2 Gas is right, security should do there job, not act like thugs.

this is what happened, saturday he hit the wall, he obeyed all marshals, they waved him through, then he was given a ticket at the end of the pad by a marshal who had a big smile and said good work, the ticket means you qualified for the finals, so on sunday he qued for 4 hours, got to the front of the line and was told he couldnt do his skid, i would have probably done the same thing and pushed past. there is video footage proving all of that. He didnt do anything wrong, except obviouslu pushing past the marshals, and what a gutless cvnt that kicked his car. love how he bitched it behind the secuirty guards when he got arked at
