I love how that thing has a giant spare in the back. I can just see the whole crew trying to jack up the truck and then have spare crush a guy or two while they try to take it off.

Do you Aussies ever do anything by half measures?

Also, I want to show up to school in that Maz and park on top of the 15 or so Priuses that would surely occupy my intended parking space. Maybe I could string a dead baby seal off of the hood for good measure...

I like how they're basing their recommendation on how good the car's going to be on some fantasy spec car show prototype. "Hey, that 09 charger is going to run 11s!" Yep, only if you get the 392 crate, rework the rear suspension to a solid axle, bolt on a 3spd auto, tub the fenders to put on massive drag slicks, and run race gas w/no exhaust...

Ah, well, you cannae please everyone

I liked the vid as it was super smooth and super clean: the kind of lap you want to do yourself, or pull off in a computer game that one time you play it properly (i.e. when you're not driving the wrong way round disabling every opponent to see if you get an access violation when you cross the finish line).

Finding out where the edge of the razor is, turning to face the darkness and revving his 690 into it's vast gaze. You gotta live this to learn it bro.

sweet lap, i love that track. Poor guy who was running up front until the last chicane.

It seems like alot of drivers nowadays are using convex rear view mirrors. I'm sure i've seen Andy Prioux and other BMW WTCC drivers using them.

Am I the only one who's never been able to appreciate a burnout against a brake? The only proper one would be straigh ahead when the tires simply can't handle all the power going through them. May be because of seeing videos of my friends doing burnouts on Toyota Yaris 1.5L.
