Default Guy Spins C5 at Cars and Coffee

Watch it here: Guy Spins C5 at Cars and Coffee

Burnouts are cool. Spin outs are not. Spinouts towards a crowd? Way uncool. No one was hurt or in any real way. Except for maybe the underside of that 'vette and the owners ego.

I don't understand how Corvette guys continue to spin out their cars driving straight??? That has been like an epidemic lately.

It's funny how every guy who spins out at "car's and coffee" is more embarrassed about looking like a noob then caring about their car. Several other videos on youtube of guys messing up like him, then they just turn tail and leave as fast as possible because of ridicule, lol

I assume he didn't have traction control on? Is there something about tires that factored in the spin out? There's a lot of cars at a drag strip with a lot more power, they don't have traction control, and they don't seem to have trouble keeping in a straight line. Differene?

I too, was under the impression that you must turn your wheels to do that unless there is little to no traction at one wheel. Then again, this is why traction control can save your butt on the street.

the difference is called "driver". Guys such as this one are idiots.
