A pretty impressive and ballsy move though. If you're hunting someone down, you'll do what it takes.

Doesn't look that bad in the video, but I can attest to similar deals in MX racing, that it wasn't fun to be in the car when that happened.

 

[1990AWD]

Wow, he's in a hurry!

 

[E116]

When you pause it it looks like they're touching. Crazy video. Would he get in trouble for a pass like that?

 

[Bud92gsx]

Whaooly crap..Talking about the vette right..I thought It was the lambo but then I watched the rest of the video..

Ballsy yes, effective yes, safe NO..

Looks like me playing video games..The key word there is video games, and not real life..

 

[hubz91talontsi]

He hit the porsche's mirror

 

[danielsl1999gsx]

I never knew how skinny corvettes were...

 

[flyineagletsi]

Butt hole turned cigar cutter! the driver of the Miata did check his rear view mirror a second before the pass, so he knew it was coming, he just didn't have a cunts hair for time to move out of the way.

 

[Redwidow]

Im pretty sure that's a lotus exige not a corvette but I have been wrong one other time in my life

 

[hubz91talontsi]

Its a Ginetta G50
Makes you wrong twice then eh

 

[91stocker]

Wow thats impressive. Reminds me of some of the older teckademics videos.

Looks like a C6 Vette to me when paused. I thought it might have been a Lotus as well until I paused it a few times.

 

[skatershawn]

eee.. that would make me piss my pants!

 

[mattasi]

I think it's bad ass... Racing is not for the faint of heart

 

[absolute_DSM]

Jesus.

 

[silicosys4]

That's why you sign a waiver before you are allowed on the track Not the kind of move for a general track day though...

Plus a lotus could never go that fast

The Hennessey Venom GT looks a lot like a Lotus, with the same body panels... that's what I was thinking at first actually. But I'm almost positive that's a C6.

It was a Lotus Exige. A quick google search with his name Barton Mawer will pop a picture up. And that was a very risky move! Crazy!

Wow you know what it could be. I never noticed how similar they are.

 

[Killa_dsm]

I don't know, first time I saw it I thought it was a Lotus. But I could see how it would be easy to make the mistake, especially because of the taillights.

Did the venom gt start life as a exige?

That's for sure the same car (type at least) Lotus it is then.

 

[stuckwithgsx]

Wow. Wonder how fast he was going just out of curiosity?
