How Not To Launch Your Car At The Drag Strip

Hot Not To Launch Your Car At The Drag Strip

Cheers to TheBoz for ensuring that video viewers everywhere can witness this sad and pathetic attempt to be cool.

OK, maybe that's a bit mean but the dude in the Firebird deserves it. Perhaps it's his first time (and we all know how being a virgin means any and all skill you think you might have goes out the window), but come on! First gear man, first gear! It's the one that's up and to the left!

We won't say anymore to spoil the fun of watching How Not To Lauch Your Car At The Drag Strip

KITT At A Local Cruise

KITT At A Local Cruise

For anyone who was ever a fan of "Knight Rider", this video from SpeedyStevie is for you!

It's the original KITT! Supposedly the actual car from the series, this is the 1982 Pontiac Firedbird Trans Am that had us all glued to our TVs when LEDs and a talking car were what went for cool.

There were a few different versions of the car and this model was used primarily for interior shots. There's even a little TV playing episodes of the show, in case The Hoff forgot what his motivation was.
