Default The Before Video

So many of the video postings are of good or great drivers on tracks. Here's one that I think shows a very bad driver. Let's play a game: How many things can you find wrong with the video in terms of driver skill, behavior, etc, etc? Normally, I find no value in the videos on streetfire, but this might be labled as an example of what not to do (?). I'll let you guys/gals decide.

1.) Carrera GT driver being slow.
2.) No helmet
3.) Some questionable lines but I dont know the track.
4.) Aggressively driving in an uncontrolled environment (but most ring vids are this way).

I am not really sure what to think of this...the lines seem strange and the CGT's are even worse. Need to play the ring again on Forza to see how bad some of the turns are.

Thats one hell of a E30 however!

I like your game... How about

5. Shuffle steering - ooo... controversy starts.
6. Not using all the track... 2 feet away from most apexes?
7. Early turn ins.

You gotta watch threw the dribble to a session on the n-ring. The CGT guy did ok I think given he's driving a 700k car... If I was the CGT, that BMW guy would piss me off royally. Here I am, enjoying my car on the ring and an asshole tries to race me, go on the inside through turns etc.
