Oh my god, talk about poor advertising for your shop -theres 3 mechanics there and not one of them tells him to shut it down the second his tires aren't spinning

You know your an ameature when you dont know what burning clutch smells like. Bye, Bye $600 is probably way off at this point. Time for a new clutch.

How do you mess that up? Burning rubber and burning clutch are pretty distinct smells. They call themselves mechanics...

LOL...it looked like they even poured some fluids around the rear tires. I guess he was using too much rear brake trying to hold the car still....uggh. I hate the smell of a clutch or brakes.


edit: Did he even turn the TC off? Doesn't that use the brakes to help control the wheelspin?

Not hard to break the tires lose in a manual ZO6. How do you screw that up??!!
