If you're going to photograph and video tape yourself on public roads, a protrip is generally "Don't cross the double yellow in the first video at the 1:00 mark when oncoming traffic is present". The oncoming car literally slows down and pulls to the right of their lane.

Cool shots, other than that Just imagine if that oncoming car was in the apex of the corner, as you were.

Ah, watched the second video too.

Dude, you're in an MR. You're entire job is limited to steering, and feeling smug. A high performance, AWC/AYC/AWD beast of a vehicle.

Don't. Cross. The. Double. Yellow. On. Turns. You'll. Eventually. Hit. Someone. And. Die. Or. Worse. Kill. Them.

I think you are imagining things, that car is very far away and you can not see it pull to the right and slow down, also had spotters and could see with my own eyes.

Alrighty, maybe it wasn't that close.

Just don't cross the f-ing double yellow, while speeding, on a public road with traffic. Spotters or not, it's a bad idea all around.

Congrats! You put lives other than your own at risk!


You deserve an infraction for posting vids of you driving like an *** on public roads.
