This thread reminds me of a guy I used to hang out with, he had a NOVA that he had worked on and it turned out real nice. The first night out, he attempted to do a burnout along a lake where we used to hang out. On the other side of the road was a mountain face that went straight up, he got into it, the rear came around 90* and propelled him right into the solid rock face. He didn't get hurt, but it sure was a bummer to see.
