We all were.

But us old guys didn't have someone like Dale standing by the waterbox to catch whatever stupid shit we did on video.

LOL, absolutely. We've all been there, all screwed up, some more than others.

I'll give you one of my good screw ups. First time ever lauching my coupe on the bottle and soft type drag racing suspension. It was a plate system on a carb'd set up so it pretty hard. I moved my seat up to make sure I got the clutch to the floor and almost no decline in the back of the seat so I was sitting pretty close to straight up to make sure I had a good hold on the shifter. Well when I launched the car, my head went backwards and it lifted the front of the car off the ground about 4-5 inches. Well, my helmet got stuck on the roof of the car when the car came down and I couldn't see so let out and headers hitting the ground made a LOUD ...CLANG! Ugh, thought I destroyed the car. lol.
