They filmed me on the way to work!!
Jim, I wanted to see the tire treads after that run. This definitely got my adrenalin going! Impressive how he came roaring down the stretch then in a controlled power skid came within a couple inches of that cone and never brushed it.

That was pretty wild. I'd bet the guy on the Segway nearly wet himself......nice video!

That guy definitely has great control of that car, but I would

...and then after that amazing test drive, the driver gets out of the car and walks into a wall.

Jeff, your thread title cracks me up...reminds me of the phrase: "I only drink when I'm alone or with friends"...

Very impressive driving. That video reminded me of drivers in Paris and London.
