well I have one aswell...

I was helpin dad fix some stuff at the house we are rentin out and he told me to pick up some tools from home to make ends meet.. anyway on the way back I saw a couple of mates walkin so I gave them a lift to one of there houses as I had to get back quickly.. they asked me to do a burnout and as I was actin like a hero I tryed but I forgot it was on reverse so I try do a stand still it wouldnt do it it so I let go so I can do one in drive.. I let go and and feel the car goin backwards so I slam on the brake and got imbarresed.. I took traction off put it in drive and hammer the car, lucky it did a burnout cause I would of been a really imbarrasing moment..

so there you go that's my story...

Well..have done daft stuff in the car at speed, on road and race track, but a Ford Transit van stands out in my memory..

'Twas the day after New Years, and a group of us were celebrating in Scotland, where they take the celebrating seriously.

My mate "Stretch", a none drinker, was designated driver, and after an evenings drinking, the subject of "Urban Surfing" came up. Seemed like a good idea, so I was on the roof rack 'surfing' down a country lane at midnight, whilst the guys in the van debated whether freezing me at 20mph all the way home, or terrifying me at 60 was best.

Stretch decided in his *completely* sober wisdom that a 40 to zero emergency stop would be funny.

Now I'd been expecting a bit of a swerve or some such, so I was braced for it.

Unfortunately the roof rack wasn't, and it shot over the front of the van like a Polaris missile.

As this was happening, I had a vision of landing in front of the van, and being smeared all over the road..so I managed to jump off the side towards the ditch.

Bearing in mind my state, the moving roof rack and the lack of warning, you may not be surprised to learn I failed to jump very far off the van.

For the few of you who have not removed a Ford Transit wing mirror with the crack of your bum, it stings, as did the landing.

Does this count?
