VIVA LA EVOLUCION!!!

I think this is how it went down:

- White SUV got disqualified
- Black SUV slowed up to wait for White SUV to come back around
- Black SUV T-boned the S out of White SUV
- Black SUV limped across finish line and won the race










- Good 'o redneck shouting match/fighting followed in the winner circle

I have been to the Beech Ridge "Days of Destruction". What they were doing was the spectator drags. Basically bring in your street legal car and race it head to head, winner moving on. Winner gets $500 prize money. I knew a few people that used to race their cars in this, VW autocross cars rabbits with 1.8t swaps and such. There are definately good clean drivers, you know the guy with the 68 camaro that he just finished restoring and wants to see what he can do and there were a-holes. There was a family that would race in each class; trucks, cars and ladies. They wouldn't care if they sent you to the hospital as long as they won. Basically their cars weren't fast enough to win on there own so they would pull moves like that.

You know, when you give the video some context, the S-10 driver still looks like a dick, but the Jeep owner seems like a bit of an idiot for bringing that.

actually, I just think he is a bit of a douche for not finishing the race and just riding off that exit outside the 1st turn after it...you may not have won the race, but you could have at least finished for some pride IMHO...

Looking at the next video link included in the jalopnik page "payback" I think it's one of the people I was referring too. One of the family ran an old police interceptor they bought at the auctions.

I saw that one too and loved the way he finished him off!...I am assuming the Caprice was the family of dickheads?!?!

a bit off topic, but in the video that follows is quite impressively stupid.  The landing for the buick is basically threading the eye of the needle between a couple of rows of trees....

This is the coolest thing to ever happen to a Buick.
