Look at this video I found!! Kick ASS!!!!!!

Ferrari Test Course

What a job!

The video is about 1.5 meg, so I'd only suggest clicking if you got a fat pipe. Or, a fast connection to the internet.

Can't do now, my firewall at work is a real bitch.

But I'll download it at home. I have tons of car videos on my HD, just this weekend I DL'ed about 15 MB's of in-car movies in a Lotus Elise. Kick-ass!

Thanks for the tip, I'll look at it tonight.

Dear lord, that was pretty awesome. And to get paid for doing that. Too bad the poor bastard blew something there at the end.

I'm going to be taking a NASCAR racer around the track at Texas Stadium on 1/6. I know that the Ferrari is a totally different animal, but seeing that makes me real excited.

Tommy: Listen to the voice-over. It states "He gets to drive them until something blows."

I guess he's the reliability person for their vehicles. Wow, whatta job!

Sorry, the audio wasn't working when I pulled it up. That makes it even more interesting.

Bad technique. Should have started accelerating 1/2 way through the turn. (of course, he *is* trying to wreck it, but still... there's no need to be SLOPPY about it.)
