Best guncam footage ever.

The running commentary from the pilots kills me.

Those were the two worst drivers they could have chosen, they both looked terrified behind the wheel, driving with one hand, feathering throttle around the oval...granny-shifting, not double-clutching like you should.... Man that was hard to watch. The Sti looked pretty well set-up, but damn that was bad.

Well, it isn't even his car, its his girlfriend. And I love how they keep calling each other ricers throughout the whole video.

That was a looooong slide on the roof. If the car had been right side up, or really any othe direction, no way it would have gone so far. Crazy freak wreck. I'm amazed no one was killed.

I think it was a competition between forums, not comparing the cars. I'm not sure tho

If that's the case, why did they bother with cars at all?

http://www.big-boards.com/

NASIOC: 37
EvolutionM: 188

That was easy enough.

But seriously, if it's supposed to be the best car from each forum, neither of those cars are representative of the best they've got to offer. If it's supposed to be the mark/model that represents each forum, they should have been bone stock cars.

That would be equally pointless. We have seen those comparisons 100s of times.

Its pointless almost any way you look at it. But Royal Purple is the only one with the guts to do it!

Considering their track record, I'm sure MTV would pick up something that pointless

Amazing table saw brake that entirely stops when it detects a mild electrical current (like, say from a hot dog, or your finger).

I loved time warp when I had HD service. The episode with a guy closing his tongue in a mouse trap was pretty intense.

What happens when a guy uploads a video to youtube, downloads it and uploads it again another 999 times?

Extreme loss of fidelity? You betcha.
