Funny, I had a similier experience. 81 mustang with a 302. I was 16 on bald tires and in the rain. Hey!!! Let me mash the accelerator and see what happens! I went sideways just like our friend in the link above. The only difference was I didn't hit anybody, only the curb. I blew both my front tires, limped to a service station on one donut and one flat in front. Had all four tires replaced with the "best" used tires he had and felt lucky it only cost me a hundred bucks. What A life lesson that was :-)

when I was 16 I pulled into a dunkin donuts and saw a guy with a real hot chick I knew. he was driving a sweet 71 z28 I started talking to the gal and he got pissed off and confronted me. I was with like three other guys so I just stood there and cut his car down like the 16 yearold I was. he was a real ass and started yelling at the gal for talking to me she told him to take a hike.he jumped into his car and smoked it outa the parking lot, banged second gear, and spun it around backwards into a light pole.

to this day I feel sorry for the car...it was a really sweet Z28

Friend of mine in highschool came over to my house to gloat after getting his pretty little '84 Subaru all wheel drive 4-door sedan (don't remember the model name but it was pretty nice). Anyway he was rubbing my face in it since I had not turned 16 yet and had little hope of receiving a car from my parents, much less a new car. So I'm behaving poorly by knocking the tweed fabric seats and automatic transmission while he's revving the engine in my driveway. He stomps on the gas, redlines the tach and drops the auto shift lever from N to D (4wd remember) and crash boom bang, there goes the transmission, right in the middle of my driveway. $4000 damage and the car had 43 miles on the clock.

He never gloated again and we are still really good friends (he bought Pat Conroy's sweet Alpina 320I years ago when I started getting into Rovers)...

I had a 76 bronco..fairly stock with 32. A few of us went to a water hole one night and my friend was able to drive through with his jeep. 6" lift and 35". So of course I tried it. The first attmept stalled the truck...we pulled it out and got it started again. I figured that what I need was more speed and a different line. I backed up, got a running start, I must have been in 3rd gear, low range by the time I hit the water. Let me tell you, Broncos don't skip well. It was kind of cool looking at the head lites as they shined through the water. It was like two green beems of light shining down to the abyss. My tapes that were in the back seat became boyant and floated up to me. I was in water up to my neck. I practicly had to swim to get back to the shore.

After we got the thing back out we actually got it started. Somebody pulled the dipstick and water just shot straight up about 2 1/2 feet. It was amazying. We actually drove the thing home that night.

Next day my dad woke me up to tell me that my truck was excreeting fluid. The truck left a trail of multi color fluid 10 houses down from mine. All kinds of pritty colors.

The thing never did shift corectly again. Two weeks later I sold the truck and joined the Marines and I have never been stupid again, except for a few other times, but I can't tell about it for fear of incriminating myself.

Well since we're all opening up....
Had an argument with a girlfriend and took a healthy swing at the the center door pillar on the old Lincoln Town Car I had. Fourth and fifth metacarpal looked shiny white poking out of the back of my hand. Still hurts 20 years later when its going to rain.

dumbest thing I have ever done was try to float across a cow pound on my quad at about 60 mph. made it about 30 feet then nose dived into the water I was forced off and flipped over the handle bars I probably skipped about 40 feet before I sank I was knocked out and broke my left wrist and right arm. My buddy saved me right away. At least one person wasn't drunk. I guess It took about 2 hours to recover the quad. Anyway being an adrenline junkie and drunk with fast toys doesn't mix.

Sad thing is "Gay S&M club" probablly would sound more believable than "Land Rover club" to most people.
