CL65 in Brasil (drifts, burnouts, powerslides, cutting traffic and etc)

Looks like a video game the way he goes through that traffic. Don't you guys think he is sort of behaving like a high school kid in an old Acura GSR with a coffee can exhaust though? I mean sure he drives fast and does his fishtail "drifts" but overall it looks like he is not giving himself (or the other drivers) any chance if they make a lane change near his totally committed 5000 lbs threading the needle at 120 mph next to them. I sure wish I had one of those new CL65s though! Damn!

It looks like the dude hit a curb with his right rear wheel in one of his fishtailing escapades...

He didnīt, just a video impression.. heīs a pilot for a very known international category, canīt tell what it is or whatīs his name for privacy reasons but he does this for a living and has formula one style reflex and precision.. already owned Ferraris, Maseratis, Jaguar S-Type R, owns a CGT outside Brazil, and never crashed..

I have a feeling he wouldn't have a clue of how to drive on a racetrack, since he clearly can't drive on the street.

Heīs been in Formula 3 for years and now is in a even better category, few steps from F1.. so, trust me, heīs a better pilot than all of us here.. heīs not a sloppy driver, he just has the skills, the experience and the courage to do those things. And these cars weīre meant to be driven like this, we have the opportunity here, sorry if you donīt.

You nailed it. There were several times where one move by another car and reflexes would not have saved it - even if they are as good or better than stated. I like how courage was also touted as a virtue, funny that the potential crash in the face of which his courage is directed is almost certainly a crash that would involve other motorists - motorists who don't have a choice like our driver.

Hahaha its not a fish tail, it a "drift" remember? Even people on youtube are now making fun. I watched some parts of it again. I'm not even sure his reactions are good anyway. At 3:21 where the SLK takes off in front of him it takes him a good second to get chasing after him. S L O W > . . . .

Yes, I'm sorry I can't pay off traffic police too.

Race car drivers do not drive like that on the streets. They know better and they know not to risk people lives.
Saying your friend is in F3000? Is he 16 years old? Because any driver who will be anything special in F1 needs to be a but 17 in F3000. Hamilton and Vettle are what 21-22 in F1?
This CL65 is driven by a young kid with more money than brains.
And for the record I will stay in the USA and leave you to race down your freeways in your dump.
Personally I hope that CL65 has been wrapped around a tree and wont take out an innocent person.
His drifts in that CL show no skill. Its just someone with a very sloppy throttle foot.
I bet he has no clue how to apex a corner.

That's the perfect difinition of
"Drive it like you stole it!!"
Who knows. I would think though that anyone who has a career in F1 would not wanna jepordize their life or anyone elses just to be a You Tube star.
