What was the point of them speeding up the video showing the 219mph pass from the outside? As if he wasn't going fast enough.

Oh my god yes this was so dangerous! Cars driving that fast can spontaneously explode with the force of a 100-megaton nuclear warhead, and the explosion also causes toxic gas to expand outwards to a radius of 500 miles which will make boils appear on everyone's crotches before they burst and all their blood pours out as though it was a severed artery and they bleed to death and the blood is toxic too and anyone that touches it will turn purple and slowly all their fingers will fall off and then their skin will droop like laffy taffy and as they turn into a puddle of slime their last words will be "curse you Lamborghini, curse you Italy, you are my dooooom"

They did choose a decent spot for it, one junction was closed so it reduced the danger of cars joining infront. But it doesn't change the fact that it's a public road with other cars on it.

Okay if I had a LP640 I'd probably do the same, max it out. But at a airfield (there are several 200mph clubs in the UK that run top speed events at various airfields). Also I wouldn't brag that "219mph is possible" when the top speed of the car is listed at 220.

I think maybe he was trying to feint drift down the street? A lot of drifters do it down the stretches to keep momentum going and to be show-offy I believe (limited drifting knowledge)

No, looks like he was just an idiot. He was driving straight, swerved to avoid whatever the hell was on the side of the road and thought to himself "hey, that was fun!" Next thing you know he's yanking the wheel back and forth for shits and giggles (we've all done it to some extent while driving with friends, I'm sure) except he takes it too far and lets the rear end get away from him.

Can you feel the colors?
I've been having trouble with my MR2 after dropping the new engine in, the new engine was a auto so i had to swap the flywheel and clutchpack over from the old to the new.

about a week after i got it started, it started having cranking issues, would start making really loud banging and clangy noises whilst cranking, and sometimes seem to cease up.

finally got off my rear end today and dropped the gearbox, i think i found the problem:

That really surprised me. I would have thought that the Volvo would fare much better than it did. I thought they had been on crumple zones and the like for many years. Apparently safety engineering has improved quite a bit.

The modus is only about 300kg lighter than the Volvo if the quoted wheight of 1,5 tons is correct. A modus weighs in at about 1200kg Still, there has been quite a big progress in car safety the past recent years.
