What I do not understand is, he was going to call the cops. The guy said he is Jeff Gordon and therefor the guy canceled the idea of calling the cops. But if it was not this Gordon guy, he would have called police even though the drivers experience was clearly race worthy. How does the name of the clown change the situation as to what you will do or not do. What a joke.

George, the whole thing was set up as a prank for a Pepsi promotion.

Jeff Gordon is a professional race car driver participating in the NASCAR racing series http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeff_Gordon

I thought it was pretty hilarious myself.

Yeah I understand that. I did find it funny, but the concept of the change in thoughts is what is stupid.

If somebody from here went and did that, professional driver as well, and then said "im such and such" the guy still would have called the cops and said he doesn't give a flying damn who you are.

Personally I think that whole thing was set up and the car dealer knew before hand and all one big act.

set up for sure...'09 5th Gen Camaro?? Pretty sure '10 was the first. I've never seen a cup holder attached to the center of the dash where the can-camera was either. Plus, pretty sure that's a V6 camaro, but the enhanced growl sure didn't sound like it.
Entertaining for sure, I laughed. But set up.

edit: Lol, I missed the link above when I first posted, yep.
