Lol. Surprised the diff lasted long enough to hit the tree.

Also, if your car can't spin the tires in second gear, you probably shouldn't be bothering with burnouts.

The risk vs reward on doing a burnout leaving a car show seems very uneven.

Risk:

Wrecking your car
getting a ticket
hitting crowd


Reward:

looking like a bit of a tool.

Hope no one was hurt.
Looks to me like the "job" on the s2k was pretty much finished before the Audio arrived on scene.
Might be some ap1 parts up for sale?

Yes, there does seem to be a fairly high rate of poor judgment among s2k owners doesn't there?

Combine that with aging cars, the high rate of heavily modified cars, (no offense intended - your car looks gorgeous with very nice mods), and the occasional accident not involving reckless driving, and the numbers of healthy s2ks will decline at a pretty steady rate in the coming years. The dwindling s2k numbers will start to create a bit of a zero sum game at some point as far as market value.

Future craigslist ad:

"Perfect condition. Never abused. Needs light rear end work.
Will take trades for car of equal or higher value."
