I think Ron was caught on video before he traded in the old one

That vid showed it the best.

Where people are having problems like that are from 1st to 2nd.

Used to see that on the Autobahn all the time, except it was from Porches.

That is just plain stupid. A driver making a pass (from right lane) into the left lane would not be able to see that car approaching that fast. Look at how 95mph (150 kph) appeared to be standing still. Imagine the little old lady in her beetle cruising at 75mph.

I don`t have a problem with that Corvette going 120-130mph, but not 150mph (plus) when other cars are around. Recklessly endangering safety is the legal term.

I believe (by looking at sign and plates this is the autobahn.

Back in my younger years :) I used to play this simulator called Ferrari F355 Challenge. It won a lot of awards because of how real it was. The simulator allowed you to adjust traction control settings and other electronic settings just like you were sitting inside a Ferrari race car.

While driving the simulator in expert race mode, you had to learn really quickly that having the throttle at 100% wasn`t always the fastest way around a corner. Too much throttle and you end up with a rear end that wants to go sideways. These cars have so much power that you don`t need 100% throttle and sometimes its just too much for the tires (especially if they`re cold). I bet a couple of those guys had a little too much adrenaline and had the pedal pinned against the floor.

We`ll see how well you do at DF :D

Autobahn is amazing. I got a chance to ride in a couple of cars while I was in Germany for a month and it`s something everyone should do once in their lives! I was obviously unlicensed so I couldn`t drive.

I thought it was The Autobahn, but still can`t legitimize those speeds with others around. Even if legal, not using the soundest judgement.


You need to ship your beast to Germany and bring it to the Ring.
