They obviously did a bad job of strapping the car in. If I was the owner, I would be beyond pissed. He's lucky if his differentials were all still intact after that...

Looks like one of the straps up front wasn't tightened down at all.

It's not Greg's. I'm sure he saw this on the EVO forums just like he saw my last EVO video ;-) before I posted it here

Nope, not mine. Mine would have broken the straps. ;)

That could have happened at the shootout a couple years ago, on one of those portable dynos that you tow behind a truck. I think it was Jon's car (95greenhrcgs I think is his user name) that almost completely burnt one of the nylon straps...

HAHAHAHA, did that really happened? I dont remember that! Maybe its better that I didnt know till now.

My car did jump off the dyno at Extreme Motorsports in Md when Sean Glazer's knee turned the steering wheel when he was getting outta the car. I was kinda pissed.
