Cars and Coffee events have rapidly gained popularity in recent years and can now be found in virtually every major metropolitan area on any given summer weekend. In the southernmost states, such as Texas and California, Cars and Coffee events run all year long, with car enthusiasts taking advantage of the nice year-round weather in the winter months.
The recent Towne Lake December Cars and Coffee event in Cypress, Texas attracted a lot of interesting vehicles, including a Lamborghini Aventador SV and 2020 Mustang GT500, but unfortunately, it also attracted a lot of dangerous driving. As you’ll see in the video below, many people were drag racing, doing burnouts and revving their engines loudly when leaving the event, activities that are typically discouraged at Cars and Coffee for fear the police will ban similar car meets in the future.
However one Towne Lake Cars and Coffee participant stood out among the rest. A Chevrolet Tahoe driver managed to get the event banned, according to video title and description, by losing control of his vehicle after trying to do a burnout and crashing into a curb. Video of the crash shows him clipping the curb with the SUV’s right side wheels before steering back out into traffic and then hitting the curb once again as he tries to regain control of the vehicle. He also takes out a small sapling in a nearby garden after hitting the curb for the second time.
The video description gives us a pretty good idea of the behaviour on display at the event:
“Drivers at this event were absolutely crazy,” the description says. “More people broke the tires loose than didn’t. The best part (or worst) is that there was absolutely no police presence so people just kept getting crazier until this character went and wrecked his mom’s (probably) Tahoe.”
Check out the video embedded below and remember folks, if you want to drive like this, save it for the race track.

Larger the crowd the lower the collective IQ.
These things are getting out of hand and often lead to show and events getting shut down due to complaints. It also end up with crashed cars, property damage and occasionally someone hurt.
There is no big deal to spinning tires. Anyone with a little power can do it and it really is pointless.
What is funny in real racing many spends tons of dollars not to spin the tires as you spin at the strip you don’t win.
Now if you have a car that hooks up and pulls the left front tire off the ground, now that is impressive.
Sam…that “small sapling” is known in this part of the world as a lamp post!
Some people say the Driver recently sold his Mustang and got the Tahoe.
