I wouldn't valet a unicycle much less a car!!! These have to be highschool kids. Some of those drifts were really close to hitting poles. They were either really good drivers or really lucky. Stupid none the less.

So, as a 17yr old working over the summer before my first college semester, I was a valet at a very nice restaurant in VA.
Long story short -- one day a guy rolls up in a blue/tan 2002 996 Turbo (brand new at this point), hops out and tosses me the keys. (Side note, he had his mom and brother in the car with him. I still can't figure out how people use the back seats.) Everyday affair, UNTIL he absolutely insists that I "take it for a romp" and "will not go inside for dinner until I do so". Got a nod from the maitre-de and off I went. Terrifying experience compared to my '93 Camry.
First porsche I ever "romped"
. Wonder if by some funny coincidence he's on 6speed? I still remember his last name was Byers -- anyone? Haha.

Note the 996tt just squats and goes... everything else they would light up the tires, lol.
I hope both the hotel and the valet company get taken for a ride by every one of the owners of those cars, I can only imagine how much they are going to have to shell out. Complete idiots.

This is the main reason why i dont valet my car, they did this to my car in D.C, when i went down their in 06 with my 996, they had the burst smell of rubber still left in my car, and my friends maserati, we spoke to management and was able to leave them up top in front for the rest of our stay. They also left the light on the car in which cause the battery to die, aswell..... i was so mad....
