Great capture, but reckless driving! I've flicked through some of the other comments and... wow. I don't know anyone that seemingly careless about their car.

On a lighter note, I'm chuckling to myself seeing Megane driver bin it, purely because I have the main competitor to that car - a Focus RS. Always glad to see the 'enemy' falter...

haha, yeah, both the Megane and Focus are really advanced FWD cars, I was surprised how the Megane handles on snow and ice, it wasn't much worse than 4WDs

plus this Megane's not stock, it has a hydraulic e-brake, it's lightened and stuff like that - this confirms that this guy has a lot of money to spend, so he doesn't care if the bumper gets damaged

oh and congratulations about RS, heard only good things about that car

Wow... wish I had that sort of money to burn! If I did, I'd get Wolf to make the Focus AWD (read about their demo car in a previous 'Fast Ford' issue). And buy Escort and Sierra Cossies. Don't want for much, do I...?

considering I'd buy an evo, a scooby, a gt-four, an escort cossie and one of the skylines... naaaaaaaaah

Nice shot, nice car; and you said that the owner treats it like crap ? : / that really sucks.. nobody should treat any car like that . . I mean.. this was probably a mistake; but you said that he treats it like crap and that's not good..

I mean, he doesn't care if he'll hit a tire or a cone, or if he'll fall off the track, just drives like there's no limit - if I'd drive a 35k euro car I'd be more careful

Maybe he's just a bad driver; or a beginner.. do you know him ?

And yeah, I would be definitely more careful too with so much money under my ass

he's not that bad, he just doesn't care

I don't but from what I saw he's got loads of money, lol..

. . why..... why would-- why . .

Would you act like him if you would have loads of money ? I would value every single one of my cars

me too, well, tbh, I would have ONE car which I would 'rally the fuck out of' and don't care about it, just keep it in perfect mechanical shape

I know what you mean.. but that would be something else; that wouldn't be a fresh car right from the showroom

thanks a lot
actually he treated this Megane like crap, didn't care if he'd fall out of the track or not

Yeah, some people shouldn't be allowed to own automobiles.

that's why I like old rally 4WD cars - you need some skills to drive that

I love my '83 911SC for that same reason; you have to respect her or she bites!

Absolutely. Do you follow NASCAR? They have moved to a new generation of car that will put much more emphasis on the driver's skills, with no driver aids. I am looking forward to seeing what comes of it. While I prefer ALMS racing, the good thing about NASCAR is that it's always broadcast comprehensively so easy to follow, and the road course races are pretty exciting.

not really a fan of driving around... tbh only thing I watch is WTCC and old WRC rally, because WRC nowadays sucks

Ever watch them at Sonoma or Watkin's Glenn? Check out [link]
It's sort of like V8 Supercars, but with more use of the bumper...

I agree that there are times NASCAR is boring, but stuff like that makes me respect them
"The series is a lot higher than people think it is. I think people here are underrated at our level against worldwide. I think maybe if you would get the numbers of how many people internationally are watching these races not only in America but in Europe and Asia, you would shock yourself. I think they are pretty amazing." - Former Formula One driver Juan-Pablo Montoya on NASCAR.
