I had pretty much the same experience a few weeks ago - driving along in
the GT and some kid in a camaro comes flying by. Got to a light and
stopped and when he pulled out and tried to shift into second gear I
think he forgot to push in on the clutch --- :) what a racket as I
passed him and smiled.
