I confess. I'm that guy. If your driving a Prius, and if you have been almost run off the road, that was probably me.
So as much as I hate that it's always a Ferrari driver doing something stupid on a racetrack (or the street), at least he took a page from my book and speared a Toyota Hybrid in the process.
As I get older, I find myself becoming more appreciative of vintage vehicles and historic race cars. Sure I can enjoy a clip of the latest and greatest dual-clutch creation, but whenever I see a vintage race car tearing up a gravel road or tarmac, I can't help but think that today's drivers have it easy. Some of these classic machines barely had power steering; let alone a hydraulically assisted gear selector. There was no electronically monitored vehicle stability programs; just an experienced right foot to determine your direction in a slide. No fancy in-car telemetry to tell you when your about to DNF; just a well-trained ear noticing the camshaft shearing.
Go directly to 1:32 for the pure sound that can only be delivered by a car older than you...
What do you do if you feel that racing, drifting, and drag racing isn't enough to promote your go-fast bits? How about 200+ MPH runs on public roads? Then YouTube the videos for all to see. Then get arrested. Oh yeah, then do it on multiple continents.
