Camera man's 'quote' was FUNNY, just the way he says it, almost like a bad actor reciting a line.

As for the Vette driver......well the point was already covered in this thread.

Yea, we were there. I was just confused with that and Meadowbrook. Didn't know it changed names when you hit the water line. That's right by the concert hall place? I kept calling it Jonas Brothers beach cause everyone there looked like douchelords!

The is what I thought too. The only reason racing wasn't involved was because you crashed before anything could really get started dumb a$$.
