Default look at this genius

"Is that clear enough for ya fellas?" Yes it is...The dash indicates you do not have a seat belt on, you are holding a video camera, and listening to music while doing 179mph. Darwin award is coming...

Seat belt ain't going to matter if you crash at that speed anyways, lol.

Haha, pressing the accelerator and keeping the wheel straight, doesnt take much skill or intelligence.

I never thought of this before but someone suggested that he probably has harnesses in the car. He does bring it to the track.

I'll make no excuses for my high speed driving, but that clip is part of a more complete video I made to show I WAS really going 180+ when I went by the Modded 04 R1.

You can see it here...Complete 190 MPH Pass

As far as a seat belt my judgemental one, I was wearing a 5 point harness attatched to my roll cage that is welded to the frame.

While my music taste may not agree with many, it helps me focus on the road and I like it!

I don't listen to music on the roadcourse.

While I drive a Corvette, I have nothing against any fast car, including the F body.

Were you the guy with the 383 running with your wife and kid?

You did alright yourself, and were smart not to push it with the family!!
