Manila beige or whatever color that is should have won when the darkie turned its front wheels.

Nice Vanagon pickup in the driveway!

I was involved in a few of those years ago... Nissan vs. Toyota, Ford vs. Chevy... etc...

It is obvious that the beige car had a stick and burned or over heated the clutch at the end (smoke rolling out from under his car).

He had the smarter plan with an entire car and what looks to be a "load" in the trunk.

It is really kind of a ridiculous pull in the first place since the blue car had no weight where he needed it most.
