That's just pure abuse~!.....I mean, I can understand one or 2 good roasts, but to continue on until he killed the poor thing is just plain stupid.

Seems like that guy's a 100% certified idiot...aside from an engine, transmission, brakes, tires, wheels...he needs some intelligence if you ask me. Some people just don't deserve to have nice stuff.

Thanks! I'm actually just a Lexus fan at the moment (LS Series to be exact) as I don't own one...somewhere down the line though I will.

Looking at that video again I realized there is a second moron involved - the guy who shot the piece! What kind of fool would stand so close to a tire taking that kind of abuse? You can imagine what would have happened if one of those rears suddenly failed under that stress - like someone rolled a grenade under the car! Here's the vidiot standing about two feet away getting that big close-up that easily could have been the last shot of his short career!

You gotta admit, that was an absolutely insane burnout and I love the part where he slowly drifted around that corner. If I was as rich as that guy, hell Id do it too.

That's just what I was thinking. Anyone else seen that vid of the lowrider hopping and something blows off the wheel (like a hubcap or something) and hits the guy hopping it in the chest? That's what I was thnking of while watching the guy get so close.
