Default That crazy F40 video

I guess this should be a request, but I'd ask TT not to move the topic, because I also want to find out more info about it. I'm talking about this guy in Japan that took his F40 on a run through Japan (on the highway) at 300 km/h. Any details? Does anyone actually have the video?

lol JW and its members come up with the goods once again!


The funniest bit about that vid is when he says: "imagine the consequences of a car pulling out"

Then the vid cuts to a completely clear road lol

I dont understand how he sold 10,000 copies of the video. Who would buy a vid of just him goin fast. He must have had something else on it. Thats funny how the undercover cop caught him.

This is just the "cheezy TV guy doing a bit on that crazy vid of a jap guy doin 300kmh in an F40" - as requested, what we need is the original bootleg - complete with "cheezy commetary by that crazy jap guy doin 300kmh in an F40".

It must exist - somewhere....

Oh man, he must have had someon else run through that lane before to be assured that no one was there. Having such a great car, I am sure his life isn't a disgrace so why would he want to loose it?

I don't think that would do much good. On a highway
people change lanes all the time so by the time the F40
went through the cars would be in a totaly different place.
I think he just sorta crossed his fingers and made a run
for it. Unless he had a helocopter in the air above him
checking the road ahead. :idea:

Good point. I would have at least taken it to the Autobahn to
do such a stunt.
