YAAAY! Got rid of another over rated car!! Too bad the narrator wasn't in the car. Wow what an annoying voice
Cool video though.

Wow! I wasn't expecting that! Great video! Thanks for sharing. (I was actually glad to see the lack of Alfa content in this one...  To borrow an expression from our friends Down Under: "what a wanker!")
Best regards,

The only way to improve that video would be to attach the narrator to the hood of the Viper with some drywall screws.

Holy****! Is it just me or did it seem like the drivers of either car really did not have any business trying to "conquer" this road. Seemed like lot's off braking through the corners...

Hi Jim,
The video is still there... I just tried it... To see it, you can just double click on Simon's post. To see it on the You Tube site, just click on it again, and it will open up a new window showing You Tube.
Best regards,

The road may have been closed, But...
there were no "professional" drivers in this video. It just proves that the only substitute for cubic inches is cubic money, and that even dumbf**ks can have cubic money!

there are "dead mans curve"'s in all areas, even here in Kansas, known for straight, flat and no curves. this is due to idiots trying to take a nice calm piece of highway with a little curve in a "Muscle Car" with little or no suspension, or knowledge.
