Picked this up from the Corvette Forum. It's a nightime vid of a Z06 street racing a Supra. The shear lunacy of racing a Supra to 150 mph speeds on public roads in the middle of the night is amazing.

...And according to the accident investigators; near the end of the race, the Corvette lost control and slid into the Toyota. The cars then rebounded in opposite directions ending in both cars crashing through two different neighbourhood homes and killing a total of six people: the mother and father of one family, sleeping in their bedroom, the two young children of another family who'd fallen asleep in front of the TV(dad thought it was so cute, he'd taken a picture), and both drivers.
This is all made up, but when will people learn?

Both passengers walked away so they could feel bad about what happened, get brought up on any charges and feel the pain of losing a close friend and killing innocent people in an act of sheer stupidity that they may have been able to stop...

This will all stop when people stop paying attention... You know hundreds of people will download the video, and encourage more people to download it (thus encouraging the cycle of stupidity).
So essentially it will stop when people smarten up... So never!

I saw an indicated 164mph. Did the Supra quit or wise up?

Damn. The new Z06 is HOT. I'd happily pimp a Z06 over any car under 100,000. I'd even take it over the AWD Porsche 911 Turbo 996!
Wait...do I know what lunacy I disperse?
Nope. But think of how fast I could make a Z06 with the money I saved over buying a 996TT....drool.
