Exasperated Mechanic
I was fortunate in finding myself in a VIP area at a NASCAR event in Las Vegas. Part of the festivities involved shutting down Las Vegas Boulevard while NASCAR drivers in their race cars drove down the street and did massive burn-outs in the intersections! One driver, (who will remain anonymous) was too enthusiastic and managed to blow out his rear tire, then drove all the way back to the staging area. In the process, his tire really started to come apart and beat the body panels up a bit. This obviously perturbed mechanic came over to check the damage (behind the wheel well and also behind the tire/wheel assembly) and from his muttering it wasn't hard to make out that he was pretty unhappy about the extracurricular damage.
