Pass me like that, and you're going into the center divider, pal.
Here in OC, it happens all of the time. Just let them pass buy and hope for the best!

Pretty legit video. At times the passing was a lil questionable, but as long as everyone was safe let the good times roll.


btw I liked this video of urs a lil better http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KEmVd...p;feature=user

Uh! That many guys going fast together, close together, seems like a recipe for disaster. With all those big dollar cars, why not rent a track together. Think of the soccer mom with three kids in the back, pulling out on the highway not thinking somebody will pass her doing 165-nightmare!

Check this poor bastard out racing on a public road.

Sorry for the buzz kill..you need it.

165mph is 242 feet/sec. Too fast for me with other people around.
-you guys need a wake up call....before somebodies wake.......

I am not going to come down on you, but I do think there is a time and place for everything, I am not a boy scout and like you I do high speed runs, buts its always at 3 or 4 in the morning and always on highways stretches where there is NO on/off ramps. Its one thing if I kill myself, but if I were to hurt an innocent by stander I wouldn't be able to live with myself.We are lucky when something doesn't happen.

Yes that's why this sort of driving is so dangerous on public roads. But I do have to add, the Porsche driver killed him. What a dick cutting him off like that, once the guy was on gravel, it was game over. Could be saved, simply backing off, but I guess it’s easy to be clever with the benefit of hindsight… this sort of things happen in a nanosecond at those speeds… and then darkness ensues.

What has needed to be said about the driving has already been said.

That M Coupe looked badass though, any more pictures of it??

WOW

sorry for bringing up this old thread,..probably the wrong time,thinking of the incident last week
but that must have been a LOT of fun!!!

quite dangerous though...and irresponsible behaviour if considered rationally

anyway,that must have been a blast!
So many cars,so many sick drivers and all the adrenaline!

but it was a bit too much...too long..one or two minutes racing might be ok,but that long..wow,you guys are crazy
good to see that no accident occured

People's egos never cease to amaze me.

It is one thing when a bunch of immature kids race their hondas because they don't know better, but a whole another when grown men put other people's lives in danger because they feel like it.

If you have 100k+ to spend on a weekend car, have some courtesy and get that thing to the track instead of endangering innocent bystanders.
