Default cool video from Monza

Dont know if this is a repost. Cool quick little vid. Crazy fast downshifts. Oh, and the cup car steering wheel

Cool but so crazy to be driving on a track w/o a helmet... Particularly with challenged drivers like the one in the M3.

I checked out the YouTube channel of the GT3 driver (i'm assuming its his channel). lots of other cool and crazy videos, including a bunch of in-car Maserati Trofeo Cup races.

Looks like track days in Europe are different...no helmet, windows are up, getting dark out. Looks to be a good driver though and he definitly has his downshift in good order!...wow...human PDK.

Wow, very cool. Thanks for sharing.

I liked this one even better...


It's got a little of everything: lot's of other P-cars, lightening fast catches thru the parabolica, an ill-timed phone call, a nasty looking car crash, and my favorite part, two guys hugging it out. LOL

My Italian is a little rusty, but when the phone rings, I'm pretty sure the driver is saying "hey careful, man, there's a beverage here!"

Love in his driving...he is definitely good. The Ferrari was working on his dirt track experience.
