Here's another one that will have you sitting on the edge of your seat.

Lots of mystery surrounding this movie. It was supposedly shot in one take from a camera mounted on the front of an autombile while the driver went flat out throuh Paris. No safety measures, no prep, just dropped the hammer and went. There are no special effects in this movie.

Some say the car was actually a 3 speed, automatic transmissioned Mercedes with the sound track of a Ferrari dubbed in. Some claim the speed never exceeded 85 MPH and other say they calculate (by the sound of the engine) it topped 165 MPH.

Doesn't matter. Watch this. It's an adrenilin rush . . . FOR SURE!

You can watch it almost full screen. Turn up your sound.

Watched it, and I'd have to agree it wasn't 165 MPH.

85 MPH or less is more likely.

Have you seen the ZR1 'Vette at Nurburgring? It's quite the blast! See it HERE

Wow! That was exciting. I took a couple of driving courses at the Bob Bondurant School High

Performance driving. The last one (last year) allowed us to wind out a new Cadillac CTS-V on a (much smaller) similar course.

What a blast that was! My son and I went together and we got to sit in the passenger seat while the other drove, taking turns driving.

I very nearly lost it on a curve and if it wasn't for the activated traction control, I probably would have spun.

We both had to check our pants after that one, LOL.
