This is the Arosa hillclimb, 78 corners stretched along five miles of the Swiss Alps.
It winds up to nearly 6,000 feet above sea level, lined with trees and stone walls and lit up by a vintage single seater charging through the bends.

Bugatti Veyron hits 225 "South of the Border"
Not the most heart racing video ever, but 225 is always a little impressive.
I did a search with no luck. Hope no 
.
Bugatti Veyron on Seven 215-225mph Runs. Multiple flyby views/angles. Car kept in handling mode (not top speed mode) due to uneven surface of the road used.
Due to its 26 gallon tank and its incredible fuel efficiency at normal speeds (80mph), the car was driven down to the border and back, without the need to refuel or the use of a carrier.
On the way back from from the border, returning through AZ, an officer stopped the car to take a look at it. No citations given since the car was driven at 80mph where at that speed it gets great gas mileage (about 17mpg highway).
About 12 gallons was burned on the 7 speed runs.

That'll teach those stupid ricers to stop in the middle of the road to drag. Should also teach the other genius to drink and drive...

2 days ago we had a drunk driver (29 year old woman) driving a friend's GT-R going the wrong way on Lake Shore Drive (the biggest road in Chicago) involved in a head-on.
there is a video inside about the crash.

3 Hurt in Lake Shore Drive Wrong-Way Crash
This was the third wrong-way crash in a week

IDOT looking at ways to prevent similar crashes.
Three people were injured in an early morning wrong-way crash on Lake Shore Drive, the third such crash in the Chicago area recently.
Police said a red Nissan was traveling north in the southbound lanes of Lake Shore Drive when it crashed into a white Toyota Corolla around 2 a.m. at Roosevelt Road. The Nissan also hit a van after colliding with the Corolla, police said.
The female driver of the Nissan and her male passenger as well as the driver of the Corolla were taken to Northwestern Hospital. Firefighters surrounded the Nissan upon arrival, cutting the roof off the vehicle to get the passenger out.
All three people were hurt but are expected to be OK, police said. The driver of the van refused treatment, according to police.
The red Nissan in the crash is the Nissan GT-R, dubbed by some car critics as a street legal supercar. The base price for the car is about $90,000. It boasts a 530-horsepower V6 engine and goes from zero to 60 MPH in 3.8 seconds, reaching a top speed of 193 miles per hour.
The crash was the third wrong-way crash in the Chicago area in the last week. Last Friday two people were injured when a driver went the wrong way of I-55 and crashed head-on just south of Thursday's accident on the curve toward Lake Shore Drive.
On Monday a driver reportedly intentionally went the wrong way on I-80 and crashed into an oncoming car, killing himself, two of his passengers and another driver.
