Poll! Pick The Awful Auto Clip of the Week!

For a change of pace, I carefully scoured the internet for some of the most awful car clips know to man. These were so bad, I laughed until I cried. Now you can share in the fun, and vote for your favorite. Enjoy!

I wondered what that crazy guy had done right to be allowed behind the wheel of the Cobra, but I'll vote for that clip quite simply because of the driver's astonishing achievement when he swerved to avoid the spare tyre (where did he have room for that, anyway??) and managed to park the car nicely in the bushes without damaging it at all. Low budget movie, I guess - not enough money to actually crash a perfectly good Cobra Coupé :)

I just voted for the fabled Cobra/GTO racing sequence. For years I've heard the hype about the creation of the Cobra coupe so that ol Shelby could whip the GTO's ass in FIA racing, it's only now that I come to find out that this was the sad result. I knew that Shelby would push the racing rules, but I never realized how far until now.

What surprises me most is that I never knew that George Barris was involved with the construction of the racing GTOs.

Huh? What's that you say? Ferrari GTO? What?

Oh.... errrr.... nevermind.

Good, bad, worse... Acoording to my theory, Albert Einstein would say... You see what I mean. Very bad, utterly bad, is fun, cult, so it's good in the end. Just bad, medium bad, is boring.
Clip #1: ugly car, supposedely mean. A rider rescues a kid from the car (oh, come on!). Bad. Just boring. WORSE
Clip#2: man looses his pants, driver making faces, Terry Thomas style, Monkee mobile: very bat, fun, cult. GOOD
Clip #3: Rider sliding with horse under a trailer, without damage, and resumes his ride after. This is so badly done that it's hilarious. GENIUS!
