Never underestimate the creativity of a Midwest redneck.  
j/k, great story, though!  We did similar things a few years back.  It was "Battle of the 2.5L's" with an S-10 and a Grand Am as the bumper cars in a mad game of TAG!  

  I think the highlight of the evening was going through the moto-X track and ending up with the rear end of the S-10 almost through the windshield of the Grand Am.
