:burnout: This video is full of awesome. Driver is Michael Vergers, in a Stohr radical chassis I believe. It’s pretty nuts with full Chasecam data support. Dude isn’t even in full safety gear…bare fucking arms? This man needs whellbarrow to cart his balls around in. 168 top speed! @ 3:20 :eek3: @ 5:12 :eek3::eek3: [ame=“[http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0h3I\_GTBKLw](http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0h3I_GTBKLw)”]YouTube- Radical\_Nurburgring.mp4[/ame] ---

Would you expect a full-body, real street car to be as fast as a race-car disguised as a street car? Yeah, yeah the Radical is a “street car” but come on the thing is a fucking race car. The ZR1 is really a Grand Tourer with a full interior, AC, blah blah blah. -TJ ---

people are so defensive over a comparison to the zr1…i think its respect for the zr1 that would even cause a comparison between these two. great vid though ---

I was waiting for TJ to chime in… Which one scares you most…two wheels off or serious counter-steering, both at triple digit speeds? I can handle the counter steer, but catching the same oversteer on corner exit…TWICE at 140mph. Code brown, lol. ---
