I can’t tell you how much it impresses me to see kids at shows who stand with their arms behind their backs as they lean in to take a closer look. I always compliment them and their parents in such instances. But there’s always at least one or two jackasses who have to get sideways leaving a show. And it’s always inevitably too close to people or cars. There’s a time and place for everything… Dumping the clutch at 5000 RPM on the way out of a family oriented fest with kids nearby? You’re a special kind of stupid who needs to be talked to when located at the next show. My local weekly gathering was also cancelled last summer for similar antics. The organizers had lots of signs asking that people not stunt...... But there's always someone. The mall (property owners) banned the event, and rightly so. There are a lot of pedestrians at the event, and all it takes is one slip to cause harm. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
overdrive Posted February 23 Share Posted February 23 That's a shame. The carburetor return springs were possibly installed wrong and they went over center. I did that on my '57 Chevy in high school. The pedal stuck to the floor, but I shut it off fast. Lesson learned with no damage done. Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
