lol -- the cameraman is consoling John, telling to him he'll get a new bike (must have run over his bike while renovating the house).
cameraman: "Damn..."
someone: "You getting this all on film?"
camerman: "shutup!"
The "someone" was already planning ahead thinking this would make a good YouTube submission.

And that is why you should always teach your children how to drive a stick!:know:

The kid ran his fathers new car through the garage wall and all he's worried about is his bike? I'd have been worried about my life if it were my dad.

Thus why you disengage the clutch before starting the car... :doh:

That'll teach them for having too much money :up:
And the moral of the story....
Never ever let the keys to your brand new, or even a classic, Shelby get in the hands of your kid(s). No matter how much money you have. If they didn't buy it and make the payments, they don't drive it. They only ride in it and dream. :yep:
Harda**, yes as I've seen too many kids wreck Dad's new car or get killed in it. Besides, any Shelby needs a driver that has commonsence and appreciates what he's driving.
I've meet Carroll Shelby and I know what he'd be doing.... laughing his a** off and shaking his head after seeing this. Plus saying the old man was an idiot to let the kid get ahold of the keys in the first place. You reap what you sow.

Now we know why lions eat their young!!!!!!!!!!!:nope:
:hmm:
Well... this is one reason why auto insurance is so high...:nope:
$50,000 for one car...
That's like building a couple million dollar house on the beach in Florida...after a hurricane someones gotta pay for it.

All sticks have neutral safety switches now unless it's cut out for a remote starter.

Darn these new fandangled autos... My first (running) car was a '64 Mercury Comet... 170ci 3spd ;) Paid a whole $200 bucks for her (and a parts car..).
Speaking of Neutral Safety Switches.. when I first got my pickup ('70 Chevy Stepside) it didn't have one.. and it was an auto (converted from a 3spd on the tree). :o Her previous owner did a serious job of jury-rigging things..
My Newest car is a '93 Taurus SHO, also own a '41 Chevy Pickup, a '62 Ford Falcon Wagon, and a '68 Mustang Coupe who will take over drag duties from my '70 Chevy (500+hp 454) Pickup. Being that I am quite the Car Nut.. that video hurts to watch...

(Though not nearly as much as hitting a deer in the above pictured truck.. :damn: pic was taken after.. )
Ya gotta love old trucks...old cars too for that matter...:yep:
New vehicals today are to hard to fix...
I guess the day of 'shade tree mechanics' is all but over...:cry:

$50,000 isn't that much for a performance car if you think about it. But hey who lets their 14 year old kid have the keys to a new car like that.
I remember when I got my license at the age of 18 I had to beg my dad to let me use his Land Rover.

Here's another good one. If you try to pull a car out of the snow, try removing some snow first, or else...

Or try hooking the tow strap to the chassis and not the bumper. :88)
I remember that video from a few years ago. It sure is funny watching other people's stupidity. :lol:

Or better yet, don't hook the tow to a plastic bumper.
