My brother didn't care because he was borrowing my mustang at the time which was way faster than his...haha

Second was when i changed the brake pads on my mustang. I finished everything up and lowered the car and told my dad to finish tightening the lugs on one wheel while i clean up. Drove 200 miles to go back to college and kept hearing a squeak. Next day was about to jack up the car to check the pads and realized all my lugs were loose. Guess my dad was trying to kill me!!! haha
