Cool Hmmm...

I consider my incoming West Coast to be a PRODUCTION car manufactured by a small specialty auto manufacturer. It is not a "kit" although you CAN buy them as a kit.

It's a new, custom production car, not even a serious attempt to "copy" the original, so it's not a "replica" anyways...

As to the burn out, I'm with Searanch and Denny...a real burnout is one smoke filled Slim pickens bomb riding (Dr. Strangelove joke) experience, not to be done around a crowd...the videos shown so far are pretty tame, just lighting up the tires...this is why I considered them so funny..not saying I would have done it myself, in that location, but it is no big deal, no one forced anyone to stand there close up and observe, from what I could see. Whatever happened to personal accountability? (The bystanders, and any parents, had plenty of time to vamoose!)
