Money can't buy experience and talent. For everything else there is VISA!

Yeah before I even saw the huge failure I knew the guy was a looser. Why didnt anyone say stop? They all just sat there looking brainless

clearly forgot to turn the traction contol off. rear brakes were doing everything they could to keep the wheels from spinning... What a tool!

FAIL!!! Too much money...not enough brains. It all goes wrong and they all just walk circles around the car and he hits the trunk release first(!)...is it a Corvette...or a Corvair?!? Doesn't matter as they both seem to smoke...;)
Then to put this on the Internet to be laughed-at by all...when is Darwin going to show up?

I don't understand why no one told him what was happening. Especially the camera man who walker around the car. Did they not like the guy or soemthing

i wonder if it was even there car... looks like they are at a shop...
DrMango

Yeah I was wondering why no one even tried to say anything. There was atleast 2 other people outside the car and both of them waited for him to be done to say anything about the failure behind the wheel.. Atleast try to look like you care about a guys ~$90k car

it was almost like no one knew what the difference between tire and a burning clutch smelt like
DrMango

Yeah even the driver should have recognized the smell instantly with the window down
Kyle
Haha I bet it was a shop who had someones car in getting the tires replaced. Imagine explaining that one to your customer:
"Yea... about your car. We decided to make a youtube video to extend our e-penis' in this time of my midlife crisis, saying we were about to burn off $600 worth of tires to make it look like money aint a thang. Too bad it is, and we've burnt out your clutch. We've ordered the part but knowing Chevy it's on backorder and won't get in til Friday morning. So I guess what I'm saying is when I told you to come back in an hour and we'll have the tires done... I was lying."
And I think the camera guy thought the passenger tire was spinning at first (where the smoke was coming from) so he walked around, then saw it had stopped, the car lurched forward a bit, smoke shifted to the other side, and I think he thought the other tire was spinning and walked back over. If he didn't recognize the smell of a burning clutch he likely didn't think about the rear diff in those cars... Giving that they hit the trunk release first only reaffirms that it likely wasn't there car...
What tools.

Before i watched it again i went and got a some bagel bites. so i could enjoy the show. And i enjoyed it.
Hear what they said?
"that was not the tires"
"What was it?"
"I dunno"
Must have smelled terrible... I also especially like when people who don't know anything about cars pop there hoods and just stare at the engine bay like they are gonna somehow fix it.

I love clutch burn videos. Because everyone always just watches.
Supposedly bye bye 600 dollars was covered by warranty.

They probably don't work at a shop, at least they aren't techs. Anybody who worked around cars would know what the fuck that was. Side note, aren't corvette trannys near the back of the car?
