Thought you guys might like to see what some of the Beemer folks are up to.

um...it looks like

an MCoupe, Z4, S2000, 350Z, and a C5 Vette with sped up film to make them look like they're driving agressively on public roads....

And with a tagline like "bring your car, your money, and a good lawyer" I can only imagine this is going to be a collection of really safe cars driving at safe speeds on closed roads.

 

Oooh The Fast and Furious Part 4. I have to pass.

 

be careful out there fellas... that is some dangerous crap if you are talking about staging some invite only, winner take all, money event on public streets...

the mere fact that you are posting a video "promoting" it makes you liable to some degree I would think... If my idea of what you are promoting is correct.

I think you should rent out the track and do invite only, winner take all, road racing there -- heighten the experience by driving with no lights at night or something...

Man, I am not some namby pamby saftey *****... but just think about what it "looks" like you are promoting...should anything go wrong at your event, all local car enthusiasts will pay a price.

 

That's a darn good point PJ. As a matter of fact, they will come after all of us (if you're posting it on this forum) if one of you does something stupid. Yes, cops read these boards.

 

WOW. Please let me know when this happens so I can be sure to stay off the road.

 

remember when that kid flew his dad's M5 off an airplane runway a few months back... all occupants dead etc..

the media coverage was quoting other posters on the M5 board -- admonising the kid prior to the accident etc

M5 boraders telling him to get and instructor and that his parents were idiots for giving him access to such a high powered car etc..

if you insist on promoting what appears to be "a dangerous rally type of event on public streets" and it is by invite only... why promote it online for all the world to see????

if it truly is invite only, then promote it amongst the invitees... but please if it is what I think it is... re-think the whole idea and take it to the track, for all of our sakes, including yours and the invitees.

I admit, it could be something totally innocent, but it does not appear to be.

There is a time and place for everything... everything.

It is only a matter of time before we are all driving electric cars with RFID chips, getting automatic tickets, every move monitored by police/revenue enforcement etc.. and this only makes their argument stronger.

BE SAFE -- To the track if you have something to prove...

That is all from me... I hope I have offered an alternative perspective worth considering.

BTW -- the quality of the movie clip was very good. Cheers.

 

Wow, if this truely is what it looks like and is portrayed to be, I can't imagine a worse idea. I hope one of the folks "invited" to this goes straight to the cops and gets every participant arrested.

Lame. Seriously lame.

 

Looks like the DTM crowd. I recognize some of their cars in the video.

 

producerjohn, why don't you go back to DTMPower? It's pretty clear that you and your friends' antics are not wanted here.

 

That Kind of Crap...to stay polite gives all of us a bad name!!!!!

 

Lol, Larry can sniff out DTM from a mile away.

 

Wow,

The legal liability here is absolutely insane.

Maybe if you stick a tube of KY in your *** now, you can sneak it past the jailers when you are inevitably incarcerated.

Have fun in jail.

 

I can't imagine that this is real. if it is....stupid....real stupid

 

Yeah, this is pretty dangerous.

Although when I saw CCR in the thread title, I thought "Keeping Creedence in the car will only get it stolen by nihilists..."
