Exclamation drifting Dubai CGT: fastest way in a straght line?

With the curvature of the earth, maybe the fastest straight line between point A & B is ... drifting in Dubai?

Video: Drifting $500,000 Porsche Carrera GT and a BMW M5 on public roads. (Make your own soundtrack.)

Screenshots...



reckless?

Soon to be $30k the way this Dubai guy drives. Court costs after crashing into someone won't help, either.

They say in some Muslim countries, they cut off your finger for theft. Would they cut off of your accelerator foot for this?
(Apologies to Dubai RLer '964RSphil' etc.)

Why not drift a $1.2 Mil Bugatti Veyron? The last eight years have been pretty good.

I wonder how much a set of tires for a Carrera GT costs?

I just have to remember that!


My version is: "you just can't legislate away stupidity"
...I guess I can interchange between the two.

Why can't it end with horrible crash between the M5 and the CTG where the two drivers are ejected from the vehicles and run over by a Range Rover.
