I mean, how many people have a driving move named after their TV character? While many a Firebird owner – as exemplified by the guy in the video above – would like to master the technique, few are able to achieve the fluidity and grace of the stunt people on Garner’s ’70s-era detective dramady. But, what can you do? Are you a master at parallel parking? Does your narrow driveway backing ability cause women to fan themselves and children to request your autograph? How about on the track? Do you hold a fastest lap in LeMons or at the local go-kart circuit? What justifies your getting mad props? Did you ever see that Robin Williams movie where he played a priest giving prenuptial tests to couples – including that guy from The Office and smoking hot Mandy Moore? No? Well, don’t feel bad, nobody did. But there’s a scene in that flick where smoking hot Mandy Moore manages to slide a Chevy Corsica into a parking space between two parked cars – while blindfolded. Can you do that? Yeah, me neither, but you must have something which make you puff out your chest with pride. Now, it could be something as simple as doing 750 miles without a bathroom break, or most number of people transported in an MR2, or maybe you are some kind of Jedi master at ghost riding the whip? Whatever your mad skill, let us know. I, for one, am adroit at mirror-only backing, and I’m working on my blindfold parking – if only to have a conversation starter should I ever run into smoking hot Mandy Moore. So, what’s your automotive claim to fame? Image source: [seeingstars.com]
