    These burnouts are left over from the first time I let my then 16yo daughter load the RX-7 in the trailer. I told her to give it a "little" gas. I thought for sure she was going through the front of trailer. After I dove out the side door and looked back at her I was laughing too hard to be angry. The expression on her face was priceless. She stopped it about 12 inches from the cabinets.

    edited for clarity.

    We watched this loading at a CMP Lemons race.

    My car so that I can take the wagon to car shows for the kids. No need to tow to the shows any more.

    Genuinely coolest loading I've ever seen, was a Legends racer who fit his race car in the bed of his pickup truck.

    I had my 1970 ACVW in the back og a ''uhaul'' going from Utah to Ohio. I drove the car in to a body shop loaded it on to a frame rack. Then drove it in to the back of the truck. And yes I did tie the little beetle down as well. My other beetle was on a trailer behind the truck for the move.

    I still find it amazing that all the people shown in the video (the one with the camera im thinking had an idea it wasnt going to turn out well) didnt realize that was a stupid idea. The car actually did start to go up the ramps, but then knocked them down, so yeah, the guy yelling is probably the biggest idiot of all of them.

    Just curious, are all these smartass replies coming from a group of motor heads who have never done anything stupid?

    No, it's that we've probably not attempted to cover the stupidity by being asshats towards the helpers...

    Too bad his nut sack didn't get slammed between the Civic and the U-Haul - we don't need any more like him.

    Exactly-as evidenced by the lemons guy laughing at their loading antics.
