As we’ve learned over the course of the past week, the Sharks’s Clay Bush is one whiney beyotch. Hey look, bad drivers happen, but no need to crow about it. Though, Clay’s 60-second profanity drum solo is pretty epic. I’m going to to you all a story that I told every team that came up to complain to me about how poorly another team was driving. When I was 10-years-old or so I was in karate. I was just standing there on the edge of the mat when some other kid jumped and kicked me in the head. Flying side kick was the name of the move. Down I went. “Mr. Ichikawa! Mr. Ichikawa!” I cried. “Bobby kicked me in the head for no reason.” Mr. Ichikawa nodded at me and snapped, “Bobby! 100 pushups for kicking Jonny in the head. Jonny! 200 pushups for tattling on Bobby.” I’m not exactly sure what the lesson is, but it shut the Thunderhill whiners right up. After the jump you’ll find a video of the Sharks’ Bimmer getting tossed aside in the most classic of manners (pit maneuver) by the Old Punks RX-7. Obviously Clay wasn’t driving as there’s no accompanying string of four-letter words. Hey, he works blue. Also — despite the lack of cussing, turn the volume up.

Still know any karate, Jonny? I’m thinking a “Spar-with-the-Judge” penalty for the next Lemons.
Jim — not a lick. but my girl’s a black belt in Kung Fu.
I’ll bring her.
Oh yea! The “Get Your Ass Kicked By a Girl” penalty! With video that’s posted to youtube before the car goes back on track! I likey…
Vimeo says it’s a private video for me… I even got conned into registering for a Vimeo account and it STILL says it’s a private video. I feel so left out.
Wow. I’ve taken less beatings at c#ck hating Lesbian Right Riots. Thanks for the cheat shots Jonny Law.
I like how he turns to stare at his attacker…like “whatthefnckwastha…YOU!!!”
Many a car ended up wrong-end-forward on that turn.
The first Lemons race I did was July 07 In the Pit crew revenge Honda I pit maneuvered the camaro like 4 times and patriot missled a volvo like Days Of THunder .I had a lot of anger then .PLus you got away with murder back then !!! A whole lot less body panels to replace after this last race .
Standard passing procedure @ Altmont 07.
I was the one (on my third lap ever in a race car, though not racing per se) being Pit manouevred by the punks. They were just kids. It happens. Though I was at the time annoyed by them as I was (albeit slowly) taking precisely the racing line.
I think I said “how do you start this thing?” having stalled it, and not actually sure how to prime the overcomplicated ignition switch system…
Clay on the radio was shouting for me to roll down the hill backwards. I wasn’t so sure because
a) I didn’t want to go off the edge, get stuck in the mud and/or roll
b) I couldn’t see very well backwards. Sharks aren’t made for reversing
c) I still hadn’t found the starter button and I thought I might need the gravity for a roll-start
