12 minutes of pure win. That was the high point in my day, thanks for sharing Mike!

It takes some seriously big balls of titanium to race that road, especially at the speeds they do it at. I'm not afraid to admit, that road scares the crap out of me and I would never race up that road. One split second mess up, brake too late, not turn sharp enough or fast enough, any small mess up, and you're going off a 1000 foot drop off straight down to your death.

What a badass road! Not sure I would want to do it at those speeds, but would love to try it, just not in my car.

He'd have just gone really fast for a 1/4 mile stopped rolled around the corner and nail it again if he wasn't born in New Zealand

How about warming his tires? You know, the ones with the studs in them ?

I love at the 11 minute mark he goes from nice inviting cloudy blue skies to dark ominous clouds as he nears the finish. Evil...

So many amazing turns, that was a great video to start the day.

Remember laughing my ass off years ago because he was driving uphill, at like 100 mph, with 1 hand using the other to block the sun :biglaugh:

 

[SupraMario]

LOL, I love how he is sideways 50% of the time.

 

[enawazh]
