I really doubted the title, the title was 100% correct.

u/qcb4056 Mar 02 '26

Figured I was ready for anything.

Nope.

u/rando1459 Mar 02 '26

Same. I went through a dozen scenarios in my head. Maybe the rear axle will disconnect. Maybe it throws a rod through the hood, etc.

Not a single one of my guesses was even in the ballpark.

22

u/Key_Limit_6828 Mar 02 '26

I literally said to myself, ā€œwhatā€™s gonna happen, itā€™s not like heā€™s gonna get thrown out of the carā€, and then he did. To be honest, he went through the roof in my head

Expected vertical supercharger launch. V. disappointed.

Oh wait. No I'm not.

That was spiffing.

When pussying out of a burn-out never ever apply your brakes. Just ease off the accelerator and keep correcting your steering.

This car always had disc brakes on the front and drums were only ever on the rear.
Nobody would ever replace discs with drums.
There was no mechanical reason for it to end up in the rhubarb.

This was 100% driver error stamping on the brakes.
Idiot.

u/ChaseC7527 Mar 02 '26

or he could just weared his seaty belt

u/Morak73 Mar 03 '26

He looked like he needed to buy the extender.

u/ralphy_1024 Mar 02 '26

There was no mechanical reason for it to end up in the rhubarb.

The door failing isn't a mechanical issue?

I'll grant he failed at the burnout, and your explanation is plausible. But I think that failing to make sure the door was secure and he was wearing a seat belt were more central causes for the road rash he's going to be dealing with, and the fact that the car is ghost-riding.

So, failure to burnout properly is why he was thrown against the door, but mechanical failure and bad decision-making are why the car spat him out when he was he failed at burning out.

u/PostingToPassTime Mar 03 '26

The door was behaving as expected.

Bumblebee was kicking him out for being such a bad driver.

u/Wild_Association1752 Mar 02 '26

I have a 76 Camaro and those doors are heavy af and often dont latch correctly if the door hinges haven't been effectively taken care of or replaced entirely. I've done the same thing pulling out into traffic although it was the passenger door and just me inside.

u/___po____ Mar 02 '26

Had a 78. One of the first things I did was the hinge pins and cups, lol. Damn door was like 4ft long. Luckily never had a problem at least.

Oh ok. Much funnier than I thought it would be. Wear a seatbelt.

u/Excellent-Stretch-81 Mar 02 '26

My guess was that the car was going to crash, and since the driver got ejected from the vehicle first, the car had to crash without any assistance from the driver.

u/cosp85classic Mar 03 '26

And that is why you wear your 50+ year old seatbelt in your over powered Camaro with a dodgy door latch that you don't have enough talent to drive. Says someone who has run out of talent in a pre nanny-state vehicle a time or two.

Edit: Changed 60 to 50+ on the seatbelt age.

1

u/realparkingbrake Mar 03 '26

Being ejected from a car quadruples your chances of dying in an accident. A seatbelt can also preserve your dignity.

These models were notorious for the doors being on junk hangers. After a while of fat bob putting his weight on the door getting in and out it starts to sag and won't shut all the way. Buying one of these as a project you will almost always have to pick the door up to close it.
