Some pretty good comedy in this one. Gumball footage. Enjoy.

that was a sweet video just cuz its long, otherwise I didn't get the point, so they were going 290km/h at times, first of all I've done 260+kms/h a few times & dude, when you pass cars on the right lane doing 260+ they are standing still, thats crap in the video, like when I would be going my heart would pound because if the idiots switched lanes I'm screwed, I mean I get ready but I'm scared, but it doesn't last long because you pass them in an instant, basicly imagine going 160 by a parked car, thats how it is going 260 by cars doing 100, so that video is BS I think.

id have to agree with bunker, anyone that has done 150mph will tell you that that wasnt it. unless those other cars and semi's where doing like 120. at 150 everything is a blur

I dont know about the speeds. Looked more like 180KPH to me. However, watching that porsche glide through traffic without the slightest hint of body roll made me feel all funny inside . Hope I can make my truck do that.

I dont think its a fake at all. For the most part they were only doing 100-120 according to the speedo. Regular traffic is probably doing 75 so the fly-by effect isnt going to be anything spetacular. When they were doing 150, which was rarely, it looked like it. Those road lines will add to the looking slow illusion too. They are way farther apart than what we are used to up here.

Ive seen other vids of that porsch going over 200mph. They even had helicopter support to keep an eye out for radar. Must be nice.

That was one of the longest, most boring car videos I've ever watched :blah: What was the point? Is GT2 something special? I don't get it...
