Been watching YouTube, via a FireStick, on my mancave TV, for a while, with an ever expanding list of subscriptions. This video popped up tonight of a pretty impressive Clubsport.

Hard to watch him driving so fast on a two lane autobahn! 😬

470bhp is impressive - but have you see the 540bhp UK one??! Which actually looks quite driveable still. Guess that comes down to the tyres and suspension set up.

Two things:
1) Why should a more powerful car be any less driveable?
2) LLF deserves to be locked up, the way he drives people's cars so recklessly. Ridiculous

1. It shouldn't, in fact a well mapped high bhp car with steady power delivery can be a better driver then one that is boosted stupidly yet has less power.
2. Agree. The man boy needs to be locked up.

The dutch guy was far more reckless. When he got to 275kph he passed a group of 4 cars fairly close together in the nearside lane. He's relying on their judgment not to pull out at the wrong time.

I didn't say it did but doubling the power of car would normally have some sort of effect on driveability. 500+ bhp FWD cars aren't normal as 300 is considered a good threshold.

German autobahn drivers are completely different to what we drive like in the UK. They are much more aware than most Muppets in this country.

Oh, that’s definitely true. He’s still doing 170mph, not all german drivers will have good speed judgement.

yes agreed but if you are on the unrestricted bits you'll be more aware, hopefully.

Still high risk when the gaps are small.
We managed 184mph (speedo not GPS) on a 2 lane autobahn in my mates Cayman S on a road trip back in 2008. It was pretty clear stretch though on a quiet Sunday.

i do tend to watch Ricky's channel only for some of the cars as i think he is reckless and will get someone injured one day. it wasnt that long ago that his ego overshot his talent as a driver but he would still cane someone else's car. too many of these youtubers doing this. who really wants a 500bhp car that spins up in 4th ffs?

The more you watch, the more it'll encourage him

Not sure how he hasn't been charged for some of the driving/footage he has in his videos. The recent 1000bhp RS6 one where they clearly were hitting close to 200mph on the road is just plain stupid. Joe Achillies was prosecuted for this R8 video on the Snake Pass a while back.

He was in the UK, the guy in the video is on the unrestricted section of the autobahn.

My comment was about the LLF guy.

Maybe its only the UK police who spend 24x7 trawling YouTube, Twitter and Facebook to arrest people for "Causing butthurt on the internets".
Perhaps other countries spend more time in the real world of crime.
