Looked up "jealous" and "envy" in an English-German translator and they looked suspiciously like swear words!

The four wheel launch was amazing, surprised the splitter didn't split off (no pun intended).

BTW, what is the blue light that comes on at 45 seconds into the video?

I believe there was a Jeep Grand Cherokee parked next to the concession stand. Rumor is they have great bratwurst

Looks like it might have been a remotely installed 9500CI (Escort)

The blue light is a warning light for "you are crazy!"

Wow this is so weird. I was on Mulholland just a couple days ago and saw a long windy driveway and thought how if I ever really struck it big I'd have to make my driveway to my house into a road course of sorts. I was very pleased with myself and then I thought scrap that, just save up and buy a property and construct an entire racetrack on it.

I can honestly say I've never seen a 911 catch air like that. I've seen a 928 catch air, but that was with Tom Cruise driving and landing it in a river
