am i the only one who thought that was sad and childish ? I have no respect or sympathy if someone stacked there motor and killed themselves doing something stupid like that

Seeing as the guys reg plate number was clearly visable and audio of the two guys talking, oh, and a clear shot of his face and the speedo just proves how stupid these guys are.
Dont mean to sound like a grandad, but if these were two Novas or Saxos racing, they would get some stick

theres speeding and theres racing, two different things. People like that wonders why theres so many speed cameras around

it was good for the guy in the Clio going round the roundabout again (to loose the other car I guess so he doesn’t get in the way)
A video like that is no different than two chavs racing in Saxos, if a Saxo guy posted a video on that, would you say its "cool"? or is it just "cool" because both of the cars were very quick?

Look, for the lad who is really offended by all this, let me straighten a few things up.
That main blast was taken place when the road was empty and I mean EMPTY. The other two blasts were only gunning it properly and doing illegal speed when traffic was out the way, hense the reason it was done at about 1am. I'm not saying that it was sensible or safe, cause it wasn't particularly. But I still think it was alot safer than having a blast round a few country bends.
But at the end of the day, if you don't like that sort of thing, then why watch it.

I watched it because I was interested I have a 182 and am into performance cars. Granted I do drive my car over the speed limit at times and as you mentioned blast down the country lanes on my way back from work (every now and then ).
I just think posting this on a public forum where younger more impressionable drivers are going to be reading and then everyone slapping you on the back saying what a great bunch of blokes you are is bit poor.
All very nice quick cars being driven at the limit but I personally can not condone it on public roads.

i guess in the end if serial rapists can win 7m on the lottery just before there released and then have tax payer fork out £150,000 a year for protected identity while said person invests serious ammount of money into evil activities then i have no faith in the law.. it sucks.
common sense is always required of course. but i see no problem with that driving in those circumstances as long as it doesnt become a habit.. you only live once and it would be a quick death better than rotting in a bed dieing of cancer 10 yrs later thinkin " i wish i had done more in my life"

Why is doing 60mph round a sweeping country bend any "safer" than driving at 150 in a straight line where you CAN see whats up ahead?
Get off your soap boxes, you've been reading too many 'speed kills' posters. Speed doesnt kill, accidents and bad driving kill. Next time youre "legally" going round a bend at 60mph, take a moment to think what would happen if you met yourself coming the other way on the same side of the road, overtaking a cycllist, at the same speed - 120mph closing speed - Game Over.
So, 150 on a straight empty road with clear visbility as far as the eye can see - OR - braking hard on a bend just before hitting another car head-on? Neither scenario could be called safe, but the illegal one is a site safer than the legal one. Or to put it another way - the limit on a DC is 70mph. It's still 70 when it's snowing with 50 yards visibility.
I have had an indicated 145-150 bannanas (love that phrase) with the shift light on, on an EMPTY M1 racing a WRX (standard) at 05:00 on a Sunday morning. The road was bone dry, straight, conditions were good and we were respectful and kept an empty lane between us. Now I KNOW that was a damn site safer than any B-road blast at any legal speeds you care to mention. The biggest risk was a mechanical failure.
PS I'd love to say I kept with the Scoob inch for inch from 80-140, but that would be a racing tale so we wont go there
My own personal golden rule about these things is - if you dont like it dont read it, and certainly dont download a 20mb video and then bleat on about it. Spanners.

^^ Legally I must admit these guys are playing with fire but fook it. Street racing is cool as long as you dont smoke a pipe. They appear to be sensible enough and their road craft is good - using brake lights to indicate they are backing off - genuinely braking and slowing down when other cars are sharing the road etc.
As I think someone else hinted at - would it be any SAFER on an autobahn just because the laws are different?

Too fast Too furious! loved the film, but as long as you know what you're doing, and these guys seem to, then they're much safer than a stupid granny cutting you up at 40 down a DC. Motorways are where the speed isnt/shouldnt be an issue, wtf are there 60 mile limits down country lanes all about?
