Let me just first say soooooo embarrassed!!!! Ok, so I just took the car to get a wash, wax and gas at the car wash. So I wait around and notice an 07-08 GT pull in with his friend. So I sit back and wait in the mean time I see these GT guys standing around talking about the cobra. So I wan't going to pull anything stupid when I left but unintentionally I did....

So the car wash guys hand me the keys and I get myself all situated, put the key in and start her up. As Sean taught me whenever you park after you turn the engine off put the car in first. Well, the car wash people didn't do that. Only neutral with an e-brake. So I'm totally used to being in first. So I get ready to go, and I look back and the GT is behind me...parked close in my opinion and top it off....oh a backwards hill. (by now you are thinking in your head.....oh no, i see where this is going) HAHA, nope, think again.

So I give it a good amount of gas to get up off my hill and ease off the clutch. I went oh S!@#$! I'm rolling back.....yeah it was still in neutral. But nope we didn't have a problem. Now my only problem was, crap I'm even closer to this dude and I'm still on a freak'n hill. Good ol me give it a bunch of gas, and let'r rip. Yeah, I moved forward, but spun the hell out of the tires. Nothing like being in a water box at the CAR WASH!

So we got on the street and in full embarrasment gunned it off into the wind.....

PS - When I got home and parked her in the garage.....full on rubber on the 1/4 pan's. I had to clean her off.....Whoops.
