another arab driving video
If you didn’t get enough of these idiots from my last blog post, here’s some more… The best part is that there’s always a crowd running for their lives. I’m not sure how people can be this dumb.
Disclaimer: I don’t have anything against arabs or anything, it’s just that these are the only ridiculously idiotic drifting/driving movies that I can find on Google Video. If someone uploads an “Aryan Accident Video” with action as good as this I’ll happily post it as well.
BOOOOOM
Only problem is that I can’t go. Now I have to get FTP to let me turn it into something else.
shrew owns.
looooooooooool !!!!111!!11!!!11
I saw this on 2+2 today for the first time. I know it’s old, but apparently Party ran some sort of promo saying “send us a picture of your feelings about the Monster” and a 2+2er named “repulse” came up with this. Genius.

Hah, this did have me laughing pretty hard…
Edit: This one also…
The best stretch in online MTT history
Okay, I better qualify that statement. It’s the best “sub-35 tournament one site” stretch in online MTT history.
This is michael1123 on Stars about 18 months ago. Simply incredible run if you look at his FT and top 3 ratios, along with a notable lack of mid-money bustouts.

Drifting
So I found this video titled “Arab drift accident” on google video. I’ve heard about drifting in passing, but I don’t know much about it beyond the basics (ie, mod your car a bit, basically skid sideways, etc). However, I was wowed by the destruction in this video. I mean, people are getting hit, cars are being completely destroyed, etc. It seems like people do this without any driving skill whatsoever. And I still don’t get why anyone would park their car anywhere near where these people are driving since it seems like you’ve got a good chance of getting it totaled.
