That was the first thing that came to my mind as well.
For many of us, a CGT and M5 are dreamcars but for million or billionairs it is nothing more than a toy. If they trash it, they will buy another one the next day with even more mods and gizmo's on it. Nothing special nor exclusive having the same thing twice.

Most say that these peeps can drift quite well.


Cheers

Both of those drivers showed exceptional skill. It appeared as though they were in complete control the entire time. Those maneuvers aren’t something any old person can just hop in a car and do. Was that the best place to perform those stunts? No. Did it look like fun? Yes. Would I be doing it if I had millions to toss around? You bet. In a less populated area though? Yes.
Here, here!

You are forgetting with wealth in the middle east, comes immunity from all obligaiton to follow common and decent laws.

The wealthy in these locaitons are above the law.. in fact I believe they are the law - and have obviously little respect for property or life - theirs or anyone elses.
Yeah, as opposed to in the states, right? As Sean Penn said in 'Dead Man Walking': "How many wealthy people would you expect to find on Dead Man's Row?"

It's more obviously extreme over there, but don't fool yourself about how the truly wealthy/influential have to answer to the law around here either. Why do you think that there are so many wealthy law firms in the states??

Bullshit.

Does not matter how wealthy or influential you are around these parts - if you pull that kind of shit on the streets... you do not get away with it.

Please stay on topic when trying to debunk someones comments ;)

True, one way or another, you will end up paying for that kind of driving if you're caught, BUT it helps substantially if you are as ludicrously rich as these people. Remember, there is a HUGE difference between serving X amount of years in prison and paying bail.

Hmm.. what about New Jersey's Governer's Driver?

collinms 05-18-2007 11:29 AM

just wondering why everything has to turn into a huge fight over a video like this? We all know its messed up but, looks sick and fun. No need to start bashing the USA which is what this comes to every time from people not living in the USA. This didn't even happen in the US, so people are getting off topic. I have been coming to this forum for a very long time now and never have really said anything about this but it seems that people not living in the U.S. don't like Americans and it pisses me off because its not fair/justified. It makes me not even want to travel around the world... which is a sad thing

It appears around the last bend they actually passed a cop car. That shit would never happen in most countries, and these people are above the law and its sad. WHo cares about how much money you can throw around if you screw up.. If you have that much rent or build a track... Another persons life isnt worth your asshattery.

Exactly. And thats where these ass hats are going wrong, by risking the lives of others, no matter how "skilled" they appear. Ask any real skilled professional racing driver if they would do something like that. They'd likely laugh in your face.
