Peugeot 306 1.8 16v owner, saving for a Subaru Impreza WRX.
Great race. Watched it from the start till the red flag, and started watching 20 minutes before they restarted till the finish. A shame it's already over, could watch another day no problem.
And 3 new desktops. There is something about cars/trucks in mid-air. Fascinating. Great post Larry! Will you cover another round?
@KillerRaccoon And in real life you get a penalty for cutting corners
Everytime I see this video recommended on Youtube I can't help it, but my brain and fingers take over control. Click it! Click it! Seen it over 50 times already but everytime left speechless after 4.51. Sensory overload...
The past 16 minutes of my life well spent. Great to hear all the amazing cars, there is just something about it. It almost looks like you are there, beautiful atmosphere.
Good job Justin.

When you take the batteries and electric motor out you will have a lightweight car with still 600+ horsepower. Who doesn't want that? Over 600 arguments right there.
And if you have the money for the car, you don't care about fuel economy. Otherwise you would have bought a cheaper sportscar and a Tesla (or an other ecocar) to compensate.
Here in Holland you pay about 216 yen per litre for 95 octane. When you get a petrol station by the highway it's more like 233 yen. Were are getting robbed over here... Time to move to Japan or America. Fuel is much cheaper there.
Can anyone tell me how the windows work on the ’74 Corona Coupe? The window is down, but is it one piece? Beacause how can you open and close the door? I'm confused... Maybe it's because i'm still trying to wake up
I think it's still unusual that almost all cars in America are automatic. In Europe most cars are manual. An automatic is more for busisnessmen. Good to see an European car here on Speedhunters.
Can't wait to see what it will look like.
If I had to pick one car... After hurting my brain for over 5 minutes at least, the Mercedes-McLaren 722 Roadster. The noise it makes, just incredible. And it looks amazing, with the sides exhausts and the long bonnet.
There is just something about DLSR. The nostalgic look is cool to see, especially with rat rods. Keep up the good work Elijah!
Is there a possibility to get a desktop of the red Oldsmobile?
I'm not really sure why, but I love Mike Essa's E46. It just looks right! Good to see that there are more cars this year.
And Mr. Powers, your suit is awesome!
There should be more events like this! Completely legal and I can't understand why someone wouldn't love doing this sort of racing. It's just street racing, but legal!
The shot of the Porsche where you look by the car into the distance is incredible. Good job Larry!
Great news! Good to see there will be more Dream Drives and European content. Especially because I can go there as well! Looking forward to the Stelvio! Planning on going there next year. Maybe I'll make it a roadtrip and connect the best driving mountain passes.
And I'm very interested in the cars from the newest team members! The Evo looks really nice. Can't wait
If you want a seat in F1 these days you need talent or money. But it's easy to see who is who. The sponsored drivers won't make it to the podium unless they got a great setup for their car. That's why I think this is an example for everybody else on the grid. Racing is about winning. When you're faster you overtake the person in front of you.
Now I don't say Webber is only at RBR because of sponsors, but team orders only hold back real racing. Let the drivers decide who will win.
There are a few exceptions, like the last race of the season when your teammate can take the championship, then you can decide not to overtake him. The other way around, when he has got to overtake you, just stick to racing. When he is a real champion he will overtake you. If he can't, he's just not good enough
It's good to see the Dutch influence in the automotive world. Are you going to Assen this weekend as well?
I followed the build here on Speedhunters. It's good to see that Jay takes the time to show how this built came to what it is now. To go over the car quickly wouldn't give it the right it deserves. Still a great build Keith!
The exhaust of the 240z, pure awesomeness!
Great article and nice pictures in the early sunlight! Is it possible to get a desktop of the three wide start and the SLS and Porsche (from the interesting silhouettes)?
