holyshit that was close, im surprised he didn't lose his side mirrors as it seems like he actually got scraped. =O

twitchyzero 12-11-2011 08:13 PM

GabAlmighty 12-11-2011 08:30 PM

Redlines_Daily 12-11-2011 09:00 PM

flagella 12-11-2011 09:07 PM

Edit - I am a retard and should watch the whole video before commenting.

SumAznGuy 12-11-2011 09:24 PM

^^^
Try watching the video all the way through, and no way the Lambo passed them doing 150 mph should have been a hint to you.

Excelsis 12-11-2011 09:29 PM

the exige passed them, here's a pov from the lotus


Timpo 12-11-2011 09:37 PM

nah Veyron would've done better job than that

46_valentinor 12-11-2011 09:40 PM

the real pass starts at 0:28 fyi guys......=.=

!Aznboi128 12-11-2011 09:45 PM

maybe the fails were because it's a repost from dec 5...

anyways still pretty awesome how someone can cut it so close

twitchyzero 12-11-2011 10:07 PM

didnt realize the video was over a week old:okay:

PJ 12-14-2011 08:30 PM

Holy shit that scared me

shenmecar 12-16-2011 11:24 AM

Actually thats a lot of room for the exige to pass.

achiam 12-16-2011 11:33 AM

That kinda happened to me once. I was southbound on Oak on a dry summer night at 70th, stopped at a redlight, and suddenly this car came outta nowhere from behind/adj lane at probably 200+ and ran the red. By the time the s-word came outta my mouth from holy s, the car was already going up the Oak bridge.

he was really close to the mx-5 though...and at that speed that would've probably surprised him nicely haha

jlenko 12-16-2011 09:22 PM

Nothing special.. that happens a thousand times a day driving in Vancouver traffic. Some guy thinks he's a race car driver in the supercar his parents bought him and pulls that shit. Or the BMW or MB he thinks is a supercar.

It's replaced in the summer time by kids on sport bikes practicing their lane-splitting.

dinfung 12-17-2011 09:25 AM

shit, but i guess the mx5 driver saw him coming from the mirror anyway.

StylinRed 12-17-2011 10:30 AM

insane.....


didnt look bad from the lotus' pov though




the description for the video is great he just describes it so nonchalantly like /shrug

Balls. These kind of guys have them.

Not your average hard parkers.

optiblue 12-17-2011 12:24 PM

That's pretty scary, but I think this is worse!

yeah was also posted here yesterday: A very snowy, very close call - BBC Top Gear

this was definitely scarier...why did the driver try passing in these conditions?

MC21 12-20-2011 06:18 PM

The exige actually lifted a little right before he passes
