But really, how could someone consider this to be a good idea?

It's as though the village folk from the cast of Deliverance decided to explore off-roading.

Post by: Hi Lo Silver on October 30, 2008, 02:05:23 PM: Something very suspicious about these antics. To me it looks like everything has been removed or disconnected at the very least. They are picking up small parts at the end of part two but there's no where near the wiring and other suff that should be attached. I've looked hard on a number of replays and I don't even see any steering realated parts snagging anywhere. Not even a steering wheel t be noticed. Staged for drama. ;)

Post by: MB.Muffin on October 30, 2008, 04:00:03 PM: Savage.... :o

I don't think its staged lol I think they actually thought it would fix their problem.. instead of creating a much bigger one. ;D

If it WAS staged, what do you want to bet they cracked a couple more beer, had a few more laughs, then just left it there?
