lol the word ugly preceded with the 6th letter is now translated by smurfy? Come on...


I'm offended by smurfs, they are an insult to all the vertically challenged and hypoxic people. I demand this to be changed!

That stuff is kind of cool.  It would impress me a lot more if there weren't a bunch of marks from practice runs on the pavement. :)

I remember my friend telling me about watching him do practice runs.

More proof that San Francisco > Pretty much anything else.

The sideways jump at 5:50 was the best part I think.

Pretty sure I did half of those stuff in Dirt 3.  :banana:

The other half involved 100G+ crashes into walls.  :ahand

I'd love to have a portion of his skills but what I would lobe is to have the money DC dropped to pay to have the streets closed. Cha ching major dollars dropped.

Because you get more bang for your buck with a light car.

LT. Bullitt has been usurped.

Think of it like a highschool physics teacher, a car that weighs half as much as another car will only need a quarter of the power to accellerate at the same rate.

I liked when he took Top Gear's James May for a tour of an airfield too.

um.....
I hope you're trolling and not honestly that stupid... This guy is famous. His videos have been around for years......

ANYWAY - Why did he choose the Ford Fiesta? This is why: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TdXzqwaUSho&list=FLPjrPQdKmGzegIhrUJR2TTw&index=5&feature=plpp_video

and lol at 3:36 in OP where a part falls off the car. You see it bounce away. Looks like a camera.

Well it may be just a Fiesta, but it's a 650 HP Fiesta.  Me things that'll take more than a few cars off the line and definitely get them in the turns. :D  I wouldn't mind owning THAT car.  Otherwise, yes, the Fiesta is...questionable. :lol

Because it is his car in World Rally Championship....

Because you get more bang for your buck with a light car.

No.   Because it is his car in World Rally Championship.

Bullitt has been usurped.

No it hasn't.   You cannot compare this with the Legendary Bullitt Car Chase scene.    They are Apples and Oranges.
