Funny read. Same old story....a whole lot of power plus an equal amount of ego = a scene worthy of an episode of Jackass. Thanks for posting.

I don't understand street racing of brand-new, stock cars. There's so much info on the web. Either of these tools could Google "Nurburgring lap times" and see where they rank without risking life, limb and insurance rates.

Then there's the issue of racing with a video cam in your hand. Darwin award?

I didn't realize the MB crowd had gone so, um how should I say it, "dumb-***"?

I'm with Chuck on this one.

Here's a quote from the guy:

A Benzo at the drag strip. Nice. I mean, you don't even need to do anything but buy one and push down on the accelerator, right? What's the point???
