Nice job man - hopefully you were puttin smiles on your dads face and not grimaces of fear! hahaha

I've always believed you can tell how hard a car has been driven by the condition of the passenger door handle. If its been white knuckled all its life you can kinda tell haha

Shucks, I do that all the time in my shark. It is one of the things I like most about it. It is totally predictable. He was getting his moneys worth and was no where near wipe out range.

In one scene my father is looking at me and I just have a big smile on my face.

I ment to do the power slide but got a little too much into it because the tires still had some excess tire shine on them from the detail the morning before or I would have been good. More room and I would have stayed on the gas and probably got the correction off the countersteer but just let off the gas instead then light tap once countersteer had taken over.

ok, no. You were close to wiping out. Any faster and you would have been on the grass/sidewalk. You had lost control of your vehicle. I'm not sure why that was a good present for your father.

Also, blaming tire shine? really?

There is always at least one of "those" guys leaving the car show. Best case, the only thing they hurt is their pride. Worst case, people get hurt.
