Saw this on "Seeing is Believing" on TLC. Decided to record it when it came on again, it's pretty darn cool. I wouldn't have thought that a Pro stunt driver would use a car as, well, inexpensive as a Contour SE when doing a stunt like this. Check it out... you thought *you* could parallel park? Sorry if it's been posted before, I haven't seen it online. Cool Stunt

That's impressive.
However, I think after you do it about 10,000 times, any of us should be able to do it in a similar way.
Maybe not as close as the Jag was though...
In any case, props to him, and I feel sorry for the tires.

not standard on an SE

OK, I made a shortened, lower-bitrate version for those of you with dialup connections. 5.4 MB for this one, vs. 19.8 MB for the other one. Low Bandwidth Version
