What an idiot. Now I understand why you're such a Gumball fan. And it's a 997 GT3 btw.

I love Gumball mostly for the amazing cars and great routes.....you can get the thrill of speed even at DisneyLand....its not the main thing i like about rallies, For me , Gumball is an amazing collection of supercars in the most different places in the world...its not often you see an Enzo in Morocco or an Veyron in Albania or an F50 in the villages of Asia....Its not all a 100mph accident marathon .....

I like supercars, speed and overtaking. What I don't like is complete idiots like the guy in your video who put other people's lives at risk by criss-crossing through traffic at twice the speed or even faster. If you think you're such a gung-ho, go to a racetrack or at least have the decency to wait until traffic has quiteted down and stay in the left lane.

How good or experienced this driver may be, you have to remember that other people do not expect another car to overtake them on the wrong side at 200+ km/h. One sudden move and it could end up in tragedy.

yeah, but at those speeds, its takes almost a fraction of second while passing the other cars....in that short moment while he passes one car, I dont think its that dangerous of anything happening.......but I dont understand , how come, on a 3 lane highway, with almost no cars, there's ALWAYS someone on the first lane, not only in this video, when at the begining there 3 cars side by side, but everytime!

I didint said its not dangerous at all, but the chances of something bad happening in the second you overtake a car at those speeds are less, than something happening while a truck or a slower car overtakes in more time.....something simillar happend to a cousin of mine, a truck passed him, and got back on his lane faster because another car came from the other side, and clipped him with the trailer. (beeing faster in that situation, would have resulted in no accident)

That's some crazy driving! I won't say i didn't enjoyed the video but it could have caused a serious accident all those lane changing, right lane overtaking... That aside it's still a nice video.

The problem is nobody is used to these speeds and if you overtake someone (or going to overtake) the other drivers' reaction could be very dangerous.

That's what I said before, but Lexion said that it was no problem, because the GT3 would fly by in the blink of an eye, thus it would be safe
