There is someone who will probably have his name and others in the Obit section of the paper one day. What an idiot.

+1 on that, this video was posted on another forum and the general feeling was these guys are idiots.

Okay Guy :roll:

All kidding aside, that is insane! Wonder how these idiots react after seeing the video. Those roads appear to be in NA - no one checking mirrors and staying where they are - mind you at those crazy speeds no time to react.

I would vote mainland Europe. You can see Euro plates on the cars, but they are all white. The big trucks look like Manns. Hard to read the road signs - clarity of video is not the best. Even when you pause.

On one of the other forums it was said that it is in the Philippines, but I wouldn't know for sure.

Complete moron driver makes us all look bad. He's probably been banned from the track for being an idiot, so he's reduced to driving public roads like that to get his fix :lol: He did make a nice save when he lost the rear end, but that was sheer survival.

For fun here is the google map location at the end of the clip where they slow down under the overpasses - these idiots were heading north on the SP-330 highway.
