Ever brought your Camaro to the beach??

Have you ever tried to launch your jet ski on the beach with your Camaro?

OK, I'm not a fan of towing anything behind a sports/performance vehicle; however understand why some people do. But just how brain dead do you have to be to think backing a Camaro into the ocean, let alone with a trailer attached, is a good idea?!

I once saw a guy with a full size diesel truck do that and blow his tranny trying to get out off of a river bank near the ocean. He went in at low tide.... guess what. The tide came back in before he could get it back out of the river. The worst part is that there was a boat launch a few hundred feet away - just plain dumb.

I have often wondered how smart some jet ski owners are.

WOW. Going to need a winch to get that out. That rear end is probably sunk right down. He probably tried flooring it out and dug a bad hole.
