Could you change it to a www...... URL please?

Cheers :right:

Maybe the Ferrari driver did not want to risk himself and others over a stupied my ego is bigger then your ego. I love fast cars and driving fast but keep it on the track!

Agreed...This guy was filming himself as he street raced a nearly 20 year old Ferrari Mondial that had at MOST 270hp at the crank...nice job risking everything

I too must admit, it's kind of nice to see the capability of the Volvo, however from the looks of things the Ferrari driver apparently wasn't looking to race. Looked to me more like he decided to play a little at first and then with better judgement backed off.

Can't say I would care to much to ride with the Volvo driver, as apparently his intent had nothing to do with anyone's actual safety in mind, rather instead just wanted to grab an opportunity.

Dont know where it was or even what country (would have to assume Europe or Canada due to the speedometer), but if a police officer could only pull over one, who do you think he would nab? Around here the Ferrari would be pulled over in a heart beat over the Volvo. I think the Ferrari driver had more common sense.

Besides Ferrari ownership is more than owning a sports car, it's an image thing for most, who aren't out to push them to the limits. Mess up the tranny or engine by just being stupid and which would you rather pay to fix? Volvo or Ferrari...haha.
