[mrsafetyvoice] Aren't you supposed to let the EMT's, with neck braces, backboards, and, oh yeah, actual training remove people from bad wrecks like that? Unless there's an imminent fire danger, that is. Oh, and in the short version of the story he dragged the kid out before calling 911. Big no-no. [/mrsafetyvoice]
Sorry. Patrick Dempsy's a talented stud and I'm not. I have to find fault where I can. 
Yes you are supposed to let the paramedics come, but sometimes your human instincts take over and you have to help the victim.
Let's take it a step further and say the car had started on fire. Do you pull the kid out, or call the FD and wait 10 minutes it would take them to get there to let them get the kid out?
That's why I said earlier that I'm glad the family didn't get all SUE SUE SUE on Mr. Dempsey, because that seems to be too many peoples motives nowadays.

It makes the Miata look absolutely studly. So maybe this Jackson guy is who the closet cases on the board should lust over.

But a hard top and bumper delete somehow makes it much better.
Looks like someone missed the "[mrsafetyvoice]".
Dempsey acted quickly, and it came out well. Kudos to him!
I wonder if the flipped Mustang was a convertible. It looks awfully pancaked. 
I thought THIS was our favorite Actor/Race car driver?

So that's what Muniz has been doing. As a 'middle kid', I always liked his Malcolm in the Middle portrayal.

Frankie Muniz has graduated to open wheeled cars now?

I didn't miss it, like you said, you we're looking for a fault. Unfortunately I think highly of people who step up and go above and beyond to help other in emergencies.
Lighten up, Francis.
This thread has a disturbing lack of Paul Walker.
After the Mitty we went to Patricks shop and did his new prototype he will be racing .

Pfft, he "races" in Redline Time Attack, so perfect.

Hey, I don't like no one touchin' my stuff. And if I catch your meathooks touchin' my stuff, I'll kill ya!

He's done Thunderhill if that helps. And a few other things. He's not out to make a living doing it, but hey at least he does it, and from what i understand, he's likely wayyyyyy faster than you or I, anyways. 
No body makes a living racing except the race shops. 
I just like picking on Time Attack because of its NOPI appeal.
If I could drive a race-prepped M3 like that one, I'd gladly drive it in Time Attack!

Call me crazy, but Time Attack is my "somewhat near future attainable goal."
That and HillClimb.
I will just stick to the goal of boring Time Trials, plus I dont have to paint my car in an energy drink scheme.
