I agree with the moral of the story, but would he have been able to overtake had the Fit not been in front of the F430?

That GT-TT flyby though

Damn chris harris seems like a damn good driver. He almost or did catch a bit of air and kept the car in pretty good control.

Wish I can have the opportunity to learn to drive like that...

Jaguar XJ220 vs. XKR-S at the 'Ring

The XJ220 is STILL an impressive car, nearly 20 years later.

Srika, you talking about the traffic camera kiosk video? Guy in a box pretending to be a kiosk. Really funny (but potentially dangerous).

yeah. I might have found it amusing if the cars didn't know it was a person (and were slowing down), but you could see his legs! I mean you could look and see it was a person with a box over his head. I just don't find anything funny about that, personally.

I'm still trying to figure out if those other two cars were being driven by old asian women ... How the hell were they so slow in comparison?

Is it weird that I cringed when the Bimmer and Audi kicked up all the rocks around 2:40?

I can hear them hitting the body and chipping the paint

0-200 mph = 17.68 sec

0-200-0 mph = 24.96 sec

To put that into context, heres the Veyron SS stats:

0-200mph = 20.2 seconds

0-200-0 = 25.6 seconds

And to think, the Hennesy Venom beats them both - 15.9 seconds to 200mph
