Holy crap. If that had happened to me, and if I had any time to think about it, I'd have to consider using that small car in front as a crash barrier, instead of steering inside it and eating the wall at high speed. Even with the tire barrier, it might be "safer" to hit the car. (except for the other car's driver)

This is one of those things where you'd think everyone will go wild for it, but they don't because that driver is a loving rear end in a top hat.

I agree that the driver is a reckless moron, and it would've been a crash video if not for the car and his co-pilot. His youtube account also suggests that he's a gamer who's come into some money, a potentially bad combination, well, an actual one in this case.

Just to be clear, I posted this video because of its sheer retardation (like the video of flying graysons trying to drift in public), not because it's supposed to be cool or a display of driving skills; it's neither.

What I take away from that video is that drivers in your area are as lovely as in MD/DC/NoVA. Everyone in the passing lane despite not passing everyone and the right lane being completely clear, people changing lanes without sufficient time signaling beforehand, people changing lanes without checking upcoming traffic...

The fact that they allowed for something like that on the course is unbelievable. There seems to be almost no height difference between the takeoff and landing ramps.

That would be the simplest solution, a lot of races in the last few years have gotten hosed up because for whatever reason, a car didn't have the speed to make it over the ramp.

That's insane. There is no energy absorbing material on the edge of the ramp. It's just a metal wall. He's drat lucky he didn't miss by more, the cage may not have held.

Maybe next time HotWheels shouldn't build the track.

Whoever is calculating the height differences between the takeoff and landing ramps on these tracks needs to add a little more room for error.
