Anyone with any sort of motorsport experience would NEVER attempt this on an open public road. This guy is a TRUE MORON!
If he keeps doing this we will be reading about his body parts being slung all over the county.
He is the type of guy that will contribute to us having to someday live with governed top speed cars and he will also be giving his eyes, heart and liver to someone soon. A nice gesture indeed

TOOLS!

The video is far from amazing. They are on public streets (that are not blocked off). May they rot in jail. It shouldn't be too hard to track them down.

Correct, but I could be wrong. I'll go with it anyway.
