    I have to agree, to my untrained eye, this looks like a shock load. As you say, spinning on ice, or the cool ""rev the snot out of it in neutral & drop it in drive"" trick... Do you think the driver is that kinda kid???

    I got a REALLY good chuckle out of this... I could see it plain as day in my mind. Thank you.
