[VIDEO] C6 Corvette Takes Off in Remote Starter Fail Parody


His tongue is firmly planted in cheek, but this video from BigKleib34 showing the potential horrors of remote start systems still makes you step back and scratch your head.

Could this really happen?

Just watch the video and see.

Apparently in the early days of remote starts, or even today if the installer bypassed some safety feature, your car could indeed start up in gear without anyone being behind the wheel to point it in the right direction.

BigKleib34 begins by telling us that he has just picked up a used remote start system for his slick black C6 Corvette Z06 and had it professionally installed.

He knows that you’re supposed to leave the car in neutral and put the parking brake up at all times whenever you use the remote start.

But then he got curious about just what would happen if he did start the car in gear.

“So we’re out here today kind of in the middle of a farm backroad,” he explains. “I figure nothing’ll really happen out here.”

Wrong!

Watch as he pushes the button, and the Corvette roars to life, then takes off running through the gears and disappears into the horizon, with BigKleib34 out of breath from chasing after his car.

“How am I going to explain this to my insurance company?” he says, uttering a few select words that are bleeped out.

“I need to get a new car!” he concludes.
