    Fucking A!! That's awesome shit!!


    I can only dream of how that must have felt to drive something of that nature. To feel the frame twisting as you crank on the throttle around corners, letting you know that you are on the ragged edge of losing it. Now throttle through this corner and keep her on the road, because if you let out of it you'll be wadded up in the ditch from everything unloading.


    I can't wait until my speedster is ready for some carnage.

        some of them looked like rag dolls begin chunked. Amazing how long it took them to figure out it would be better to be strapped in than thrown out.

            Open-wheel cars were just death-traps. Hell, they still are!

                    I guess that's one advantage of not being strapped in. About the only one.

                        I don't think it helped the one that burned in the Vid.

                          In a convertible you're boned if it starts rolling, strapped in or not. I don't think there is an upside to either option.

                            I just went out to the shop and hugged my rollcage.

                            great video.

                              Stone cold crazy. Reminded me of a clip from the IMAX film Super Speedway.
