Pretty cool video for the new Civic/Civic Type "R".

During the video, press the "R" key on your keyboard to toggle between an alternate story. This is activated as soon as the video starts. Pretty cool...

Fastest Lap of Manhattan - Afroduck

Manhattan lap record-setter, found guilty by jury, flees to Canada.

I know he did this at night but I'm amazed he didn't get tied up in more traffic. But like Baretta said, Don't do the crime, if you can't do the time.

Certainly "dumass" to post it on line. As I have said in other threads - You can't fix stupid.

I'm surprised the 650S was that quick. Didn't think it would get the jump on the Agera.
Expected the 918 to walk away though, so no surprise there, pretty much a race for 2nd.

I watched the original version of that afroduck vid.. shiett.. I drive faster than that on my daily commute. If he did flee the country it was a big overreaction on either his or the courts part. Pretty lame actually.

Yea, the entire thing is BS. The guy is a douche, especially for leaving his pregnant wife behind while he runs, but bringing him up on charges for speeding and crossing a few solid white lines is ridiculous. He drives no differently then most people in the area. There were a few cars in the video driving the same speed as him, and the single red light he ran was run by the guy in front of him as well - I wonder, did NYPD get that guys plate number and mail him a ticket?

The only difference here is he posted a video and bragged about it. Supposedly, a few of the jurors stated that they wanted to make an example out of him, and he was facing a year in jail for it. That's not how the justice system should work.

A year in jail for that? Granted he made stupid moves but just ticket him to hell for reckless.
