I think "hold my beer, watch this." Would have been more appropriate. Sorry about the luck.

I give you credit for taking a nice car out to the track and beating the bejesus out of it. Sorry to see that you banged up your ride. Next time, use a camera mount damn it!

Haha..I was gonna say. Your other videos were good as well.

Could have been worse. If you are going to kiss the wall, Ide have to say there isnt a better way. nice and flat, spread the force over more area...just cosmetic damage. Same impact on a corner or head on/rear on would have caused alittle more I think.

Good vid! haha.

well, I had to pay 500 bucks and I got two more points but mainly my punishment for that asshattery is now being known as the guy that got busted doin' 144 and went home.

I've made thousands of videos with attention to detail and production value but my claim to fame is a locked down shot while being a dumbass.

At least this one had an exterior shot of my dumbassness. Much better production value.
lol

I think it's badass that you're able to post this and laugh about it, man. Seriously, I really respect that. Here I was watching the video thinking, "This guy is going to be a complete toolbox," and at the end I was thinking, "He's got to be cool in person."
