How can you not admire the courage it takes to come around a corner, see a wall of smoke in front of you, and just nail it anyway?

Sub 3 second 0 to 100 on dirt often sideways in a car with over 1500 Hp at sea level on a track you have the sun in your face through 30% of the turns. Where a over corection means dead ! Next please ? not (you might get fucked up a bit)

Big balls and a little brains.

[Nudie]

A bit of talent involved there too Red

[Redmohawk]

No Nudie alot of talent or your dead. I've raced on and off for 3 years and I wouldn't try, I know I'm far from good enough.

[chopiesel]

i found it kinda lame.....

[livewire]

1990!
Geez that engine was making some snot

[Redmohawk]

chop 0 to 100 in under 3 sec on dirt and sideways is far from tame, but it looks slow on the vids. When your in a car as passenger doing 250 kph plus come up to a bend and swing into it at 170 - 180 with a drop off of 600 feet only 8 feet from your back tyres and no trees to stop you, hmmmmm makes thrashing a bike through the twistys seen a little tame.

Na scaryest shit I've been navigator in was up on logging tracks in wrx with 400 hp on tap and a wheel man named Peter from shep , speed's up around 180 190 down straights big ones we touch 250 most open corners doing 100 to 120 deer are a hazzard at times you don't expect though (they dont allow for them on nav sheets haha). Was a good thing pete was switched on that day or I wouldnt be here, doing about 100 around blind bend coming into a long straight accelerating hard 3/4 around bend when a very supprized spikey is standing in the middle of the road. Pete took it all in very fast let car out real wide went around deer still with a look of WTF on its face (prob just like mine) was I was watching the ass of car in side mirror hanging over edge of drop off as we slid around at maybe 120. Pete just kept on driving like a nutter (with me blabbering as I'd lost my shit and couldnt find my composure to get back into race notes) We finished 4th. Peter gave up driving after that was getting to expensive and time comsuming with limited sponsorship.
