Back in my high school days the one kid in school that always wanted to "run for pink slips" drove a Chevy Nova, the original small body car. I think his was a 1964. He had the biggest tires possible to buy back then on the rear. His dad ran the local engine shop for drag racers. If someone got close to beating him, they just built a higher horse power engine. He never bothered racing me since I had 1960 VW that had 36 HP when new and maybe 26 HP left when I was driving it.
On the last day of school the local radio station was playing Alice Cooper's "Schools out for summer" and every kid in the lot had that playing, and cranked up. It was cool to hear and see. The kid in the Nova pulled up to the front door of the school and the large circular driveway and left two patches of wide rubber from the front door to the street. I was real sure the school was not going to blame be for that.
