You are 100% correct. LOL. My 5 year old, 0 mile ET Streets are are on the wrong side of the car!

I have since fired my tire tech.


Excuses I was thinking of coming up with instead of owning it -

- Reverse burnouts are easier on the car due to the gear ratio advantage (but only one speed)
- Putting on negative mileage (i.e Bueller) so the tires would last longer
- Camera mirrors must have screwed up the shot
- The classic 'I was playing a trick on you guys!'

Keep an eye out for other blunders. I'm sure they exist. They certainly are showing up in the friggin electrical department.
