Default Re: Stupid Pit Tricks

I started my S/ST AMX on the lift at an AAMCO while in gear. I hit the brake pedal fast enough but the lift (this was a drive on lift) was oily. The car slid right off some 8' in the air. I guess I got lucky there was a wall in front which caught the car with the front tires off the lift! Man, did I feel like a moron! Hadn't even been to the track for the first time with the new engine yet. Slight damage to the grille and hood. Ego took it worse...
