LOL, California Special...
I have a story to share with you on one of those.
Couple years ago, this girl showed up with one at the track to race on street night.
First time racer- she puts her foot down and keeps it there- didn't bother to lift until 1/2 mile after the starting line.
After she cleared the sand trap, she hit the hay bales and finally came to a stop.
So they flatbed the thing back to the pits.
Next thing you know, the thing is engulfed in flames because all the hay that got jammed up in the engine compartment ignited.
Burnt the car to the ground...

You'd be amazed how many racers don't know when to lift...
