The only thing funnier than this is an Arab drift video.

Hey, let's go drive fast on a cold track, with a bunch of people around us with unknown levels of skill, when the run off areas are covered in ice. what could go wrong?

Travis, on the other hand, shows what a bunch of stage rally experience can get you - remain calm and be ready to hit the gas when it's the right time to...

The first part of the video with all the street cowboys was the closest to what I found at the 'ring. I ran it 3 times back in the late '60's, probably 30 to 40 laps in total. All you needed was a valid street license (still true) and a motorized vehicle. So, the bikes, the scooters, the 2CV Citreons, the Dafs (a Dutch mini car about 14 HP), the Porsches, etc. all ran together. Mayhem? Ya fun too!

You forgot to mention a public TOLL ROAD. It ain't free. Back in the day it was 20DM (about $5.00) per lap. Many times they just waved you on when you got to the "toll". I have many great memories of the fun in both my Judson Super charged '63 Beetle and my '66 Turbo Corvair. Never got a chance in my 1968 Bimmer 2002ti or my 1970 Alfa 1750GTV.

the sad thing is roads like the autobahn and the nurburgring would never work in the USA .
the 1st thing you would get is all the do gooders crying because some one got hurt or killed and though the do gooders would never drive on the road they would not want any one to .
then there is the fact that even though there is a law on the US highways to move right when some one wants to pass you when your in the left lane because it is also against the law to pass on the right no one ever moves over for you .
