What gets me is that the camera man should be able to notice the tires are not spinning, he should have told the driver to stop!

so the guy cant smell burning clutch vs burning tire. the camera guy walks around to see if the other wheel is spinning of course he walks in front of the car so when the tard driving accidentally comes off whats left of the clutch he runs him over. no one tells the guy to cut whats hes doing.
they are all trying out for the US Olympic fail team

This is exactly what I was thinking. If a new Corvette EVER suffered from 1 wheel peel, you know something has already failed. I would have called off the burnout without even checking the other side, much less walk in front of the damn car!

My mama said "stupid is as stupid does"

What I can't understand is with the given intelligence, how did these people make the money they make to buy cars like these? I mean, who hires these idiots?

Yeah someone posted that on another forum. Guy isn't the brightest. If you look off to the RH side it says that GM paid for it under warranty. I wonder if this is true. Warranty does NOT cover abuse and stupidity. If he was under 12K miles he might have had it done... but a lot of aftermarket warranties classify things like clutches as "wear items". Then again I remember seeing lifters put in under warranty because the guy didn't change oil in over 10K miles. Guess it makes a difference if the guy that handles warranty claims is your buddy...

This guys not much brighter. WW/NSFW (swear words)

Something's seriously wrong with society when a dumbass like that can afford to own a Corvette. It looked like he cooked more than just the clutch. Notice how the engine was ticking loudly at idle?

Doctors and lawyers don't need to know anything about cars, fellas. Sad, but I've seen plenty real-life examples just like this.

You're right. Ironically I'm a doctor myself (anesthesiologist).

Took me a bit to fiqure out what he did but im pretty sure he tryed to get the wheels spinning at first then hit the brakes while reving it to do a "brakestand", overpowered the clutch and finally stalled it when he let rpms drop. This is what i worry about when i bring my dd in for warranty work and leave it overnight...
