File is 64 Mb or something ungodly like that, so 56gay need to apply. See if you can beat my DL speed.


Anyway, Im pretty sure the 996 TT was trying to hustle the guys for the first 2 races, youll see why in the end, but its still a bad *** run. Either that, or he just underestimated the car... however you would have figured he would have learned his lesson the first time. Maybe not.

The consensus is that the VR4 jumped on the first 2 races and the guy in the Porsche couldn't drive. Still a sweet video.
