Errm, not being funny, but what is there to enjoy about that clip????

A cavaliar follows a scooby..and thats about it.....are they supposed to be racing, cos they dont seem to be, and if they arent ( which of course they shouldnt be doing on public busy roads), whats the point in this clip???

LMAO At no point is that scooby doing anything other than the sort of day to day driving I do every day? There's no racing???

So what ??!?!!?
Safe distances, good indication and road position.
Quite obviously not racing.
Anyway, it's perfectly feasable that a Cavalier V.....




Ooops, I nodded off.
It's quite feasable that a Cav V6 could outrun an Impreza on the public highway, especially a dull dual carriageway. The capabilities of any vehicle can only be fully realised by capable driving, so without knowing whose in charge.....?
Also, any incapable reckless Kn*bhead in a grotty Nova is free to outrun me on any road, I'd rather not get involved. Let them rearrange lamposts and trees, I'll find a quiet road and have my own fun.

Corradoboy, well said!

My thoughts exactly. I have absolutely no interest in racing anyone else, I just like driving quickly with as little distraction as possible.

Unhappy

Stupid driving by all in that clip.
A few observations.
o It seems as though the camera car and V6 were 'on a cruise' driving around to see who they could race(else why have a video camera ready?).
o If the Impreza was 'racing' the v6 then why did'nt it go past when the v6 pulled over, but pulled in to let the 'chase car' past. Why did'nt it stay in the outside lane?
o When they turn off the national speed limit they go into a 40mph limit. Now all cars must be doing more than 40 in this clip, but it seems as though the V6 wanted to loose his license for longer than the Impreza did.
o Faster round the roundabout, maybe the impreza driver slowed down to check if anyone was coming, rather than shoot right across at 50Mph.
o They are still going faster than 30 in the built up area

There are so many driving errors in that clip it hardly shows all three cars in a good light.

I often have the camcorder in the car and I can honestly say i've never raced a car on the road...

On the other hand i know my vids arent interesting to anyone other than those involved, which is why i dont post them claiming to be interesting
