As a both car and bike enthusiast with an M1 license, I hate to say it but all 3 were idiots doing it on a public road like that. I m not opposed to have a little fun on the road but what they did was just downright reckless and endangering others.

In addition, call me whatever but I never punch it with a female passenger. I'd never forgive myself if I get my wife hurt.

True, I never do anything with any passenger in the car

Insane race but these are the same type of I D I O T S being called on the NYC thread.

That was a nice bit of driving. Regardless of anything else it was exciting to watch and would have been invigorating to experience (evident by the passenger's comments).

QFT - it's called a double standard when it comes to riders and cages....

Yes, exciting to watch, but crazy dangerous. Did you notice one car unknowingly almost cut him off, he quickly got back before the Audi hit him.

Completely stupid, reckless, and dangerous yes. But unlike the NYC incident, I don't see the bikers harassing the guy and trying to run him out of his lane, slamming on their brakes in front of him forcing him to stop, taking him and his girlfriend virtual hostage, nor did they shut down the highway, or try to pursue him after he fled and proceed to beat the crap out of him and trashing his car.

The only thing in common here is stupidity. Other than that it's two completely different and incomparable things. Friendly thumbs up and waves at the end, as opposed to people going to hospitals and numerous arrests.

All three are idiots especially the R8 driver. What a cocky egotistic douchebag not only risking his life but also his passenger and other motorists. Just one wrong move and someone could easily get killed at that speed. Everyone has a family and people who care for them. Imagine the pain and suffering they would have to go thru because of these idiots.
