I've heard worse whining from the cockpits of veteran F1 drivers. :shock: Heat of the battle...everybody lets loose once in a while. Nascar audio is a lot more accessible,so you hear a lot more of it. Makes them all almost human...:) Kyle can drive the wheels off just about anything...and he wins. His attitude is MUCH better that it was a few years ago.His brother..not so much..but he has improved. The in car coverage with Nascar is amazing..stuff that would normally never be seen gets prime time air,both audio and video. The Bristol in-car video of Kyle riding out a 165mph tank slapper out of turn 4 was simply amazing..I don't know how he kept it from wrecking. Talentless bums... :lol: :sunny:

you know whats funny is i have over 6K miles on that track all on the GT racing game and that was two years ago i have not look to see how many miles i'm up to now but it's alot . why do i have so many miles on the game because there is nothing else to do between coats when i'm painting . i just love that track maybe some day i will get to really drive it .
i have been told you can't rember all the turns but that is just not true if you drive any track enough you will know every turn, bump , braking point , track out and so on .

Again, not so funny - but worth watching.

That was a dirty move to start with and the timing made it extremely dangerous.

I think I've found the ultimate low speed racing series though.

What a knob! I like that gate though, keeps the idiots from wrecking the train. I was waiting for the backhoe to just grab the front of the car that would have been priceless.

I saw a kid do that once, fortunately for him he did realize that the creaking noises weren't good as he started to let the jack down and only managed to dent the floor instead of punching through it.
