I'm not a tow truck driver, but after seeing cars unloaded Im guessing he was putting it in neutral and removing the ebrake so he could lower it by winch, except he undid a strap he wasn't meant to.

Probably.

Also thanks for giving me flashbacks of the time I saw a guy kill himself at the auction by ripping his leg apart. Reverse is not neutral, kids, and never push the clutch in with your hand.

I feel like a huge twat when i accelerate off a turn/light then have to quickly brake in the suburbs, but usually when i open it up in first/second its because i actually see an opening or have a long stretch ahead of me. Im guessing these guys drive like that through every street in london constantly mashing the gas pedal then immediately slamming on the brakes like douche bags. Seems like such a waste of a bunch of super cars. For the record, the guy in the alfa 8c convertible wins.

I remember a year or two ago when I had just setup my new home theater system, this was the first video I played through the system to show it off. Best sounding car of all time.

Porsche 9FF driven by Chris Harris. Sounds amazing, and I love watching his eyes get huge when the car hits full boost.

Chris Harris' vids are great. He's very eloquent and technical about the cars but still manages to be really enthusiastic, and you can just see that he really gets right into the cars and is loving what he's doing. Dude can drive too.

Should i be cringing that the moment the engine turned over hes basically revving the poo poo out of it? I am wary about revving it high after a couple blocks.. let alone a couple of microseconds. Really nice v8 though. TVRs are cool as poo poo

To be fair, the Speed 12 was by far the most bonkers car made by an already completely bonkers company. It's gloriously unhinged.
