Yeah, definitely more on the black car than the other two - but the guy in the blue car was overdriving just as bad and putting himself into a situation where he had to make two evasive maneuvers while under hard braking. The guy in the black car just got loving lucky.

Well yeah, the guy in the blue car was definitely driving like a dick and staying dangerously close to the red car for the sweet youtube cred, but he evidently had the skills and/or luck to back it up.

For all his faults I have to commend the blue car driver for managing to keep it out of the wall. That looked like poo poo you get away with in Gran Turismo not real life.

By "insane" you mean "unrideable first-year-college CG :jerkbag:fest", right?

Here's another unrideable CG wank-off bike that at least looks good

The actual incident happens at ~1:40 in the first video.

I think they all did pretty well not to hit anything.

Holy poo poo that was way too close for comfort. That section is so fast and narrow it wouldn't take much to cause a massive accident there. The Subaru guys were pushing way too hard for what is essentially open lapping on a nice road. I'm so glad the M3 didn't get tangled up in the mess, we talked with those guys where we were there last month.

No, they're just stupid. "Insane and completely useless" in car form is 600bhp in a carbon fiber wedge that can't clear kerbs, and that's fine. Those are literally (I'm not misusing the word) unrideable at anything above jogging speed.

Somehow if that car were missing either the crazy lights or the chrome wrap/paint I would hate it.

I don't like all chrome cars and I typically don't like dumb under lights, but that thing is just amazing.

I'm not trying to be a dick, but I just find it highly suspect that a car that has been raced has a targa roof with no cage, and what looks like completely OEM Ferrari engine bay. It's a cool car, don't get me wrong.

My guess is in this case 'raced' means driving schools, autocross or something. Most of those (depending on level) will allow you to run a stock car with no additional safety stuff.

He did say it'd been restored afterwards, presumably removing traces of cages and sporty fart cans.

My experience with my mate's E30 M30 swap leads me to believe that it would be front-heavy as gently caress. Which is good because 300-odd hp makes for some mint burnouts :c00l:

Put a bunch of spare cooling systems parts in the trunk to balance out that 50/50 and solve two problems at once. I am good at BMWs.

Interestingly the red stripe across the number plate indicates that it's a temporary plate for moving the car from place to place, usually used by dealers. Considering Japan's laws for modification, in this case it basically means the car is in no way road legal. :v:
