Just proves, you can buy a beautiful sports car, but it isn't any faster than the mechanical defect behind the wheel.
That guy in the Challenger is certainly not afraid of curbs either. Watch the spikes on the G meter when he jumps them, you know he was on throttle when he hit.

Great vids, I love the sound ,but when I saw the picks, I almost shat my pants...what a wierd design, yet that looks like it was in the class with theDecon Monza's and the Vettes that never were passed on the straights at Daytona in the 70's. Unfortunately, I hate to burst your guys bubbles, that was not a Ferrari, not even close. Do I know what It was, no cause I couldnt see the front, but history shows us Ferrari made the 312PB and ran them between 71-73. they didnt make another prototype till the 333SP in the early 90's.
As for the defect behind the wheel, when talking to a couple crew members form a very prestigious museum, they brought up a good point when I was talkign to them about how they would do with their Corvette Grand Sport against some Jaguars. The Jags had updated suspension, and are worth around 150,000. To us that sounds alot, but the GS is estimated around 8.5million!! so the question is, would you haul ass around a track in a rare multimillion dollar car, tryign to win the race that means nothing but braggin rights, and having a good chance of crashing it? me? no I would go out there to have hot laps, exhibition laps, but leave the real racing to the guys with the lesser valued cars. You could take a Mustang and make it to that years specs, and be able to enter it into vintage events, so not all the cars out there have history, some of them are recently built.
