Life's most embarrassing car moments

A few months back I bought a nice Dart from somebody here. I've been working on it regularly. A real solidly built car. I've put 2500miles on it and am absloutely confident in it. Built 318, manual 904, 3.55 Sure Grip
I drive to Atco one night for test and tune.
Been there many times with other vehicles... Traction is usually never bad. I'm in the second pair of the night. I light the pre-stage, check the guages, bring it up to around 1800rpm and light the second light. I mash it and it spins horribly, tach hits 6000 in a heartbeat....I'm not liften', it's only a 318.
I push 2nd to stop the wheelspin and it still spinning bad. I lift just as it really starts getting out of shape. Check the mirror as I roll down the track, no apparent leakage, just two nasty stripes. It's running fine.
Get almost all the way to the turnaround and coolant sprays everywhere!
And yes, I had coolant, not water in it...
Track stopped for 45minutes for cleanup...
That's when I became THAT guy!
