The driver of the Veyron had a total brain fart of some sort. I would go hide in a cave if I did something like that.

Its a different crowd for sure but it one of the best sites for local race scene. I used to have a small tire heads up car and a lot of DFW racers are there.

And I can appreciate the differences. In fact I wish there was one here for our local track. Maybe there is and I just have not found it yet?:cheers:

The whole deal smells of insurance fraud...

That video is going to kill this guy. He is going to have a tough battle trying to get insurance to pay for this. Of all the threads I have read about this and the guy it sounds like he is a exotic car sales man and repair. Well even though he is around them I don't see him affording cars like this doing that. Reality is going to hit home with this guy. I believe in karma and it catches up to everyone.

Video got removed..WTF?

I guess if you can own one of those you have some big dollar lawyers on retainer....

In the story online it said "he dropped his cellphone and "....so in other words the guys was distracted on the phone or texting or whatever, while driving a 1.1 million dollar car....dumbass

On Top Gear, Clarkson said something along the lines of the fact that it cost like 3 million to build the car but they sell for 2 million.....its purely an exercise on enginnering a car to that degree..... just to say they can do it.

The DB most likely is selling the rights to the video --- or got a payoff agreement to stifle it from the B.V. driver...


YouTube says:

This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Joe M Garza.

The car always looked like a boat. I always thought it would do well in a lake.

Now it's a nice parts car
