These are some pretty good races. 👍
Watch the Race

 

[Darin]

That RS6 is just pure awesomeness!

 

[XenoN]

Really nice video.
I was quite impressed that a stock(?) M5 could hang with a MTM tuned RS6 like that
And the sound of CSL was just plain awesome..

The US needs an Autobahn.

The US needs an Autobahn.

I hope you know some Autobahn do have speed limits. While others, as you are quite used to have none what so ever.

I have mix opinion about an no speed limit highway in the US. As you may know there is already more wreck in the US then in those Autobahn in Europe. Why well its easier to get a license in US then in Europe. They dont just let any idiot have one.

Imagine all those "ricers" on a US highway with no speed limit... your just asking for death.

On the other hand... I dont see any problem with Porsches going 160 + MPH!

What do you have to do to get a lisence in Europe?

Not a good idea...

In the UK you first have to pass a written test. Then a 50min practical test that goes through just about every manuvre. If you touch the curb while parralell parking, FAIL, if you lock the wheels (even slightly) during an emergency stop, FAIL, if you go 31 in a 30 zone, FAIL. there are lots of manuvres and you have to go on a fast road as well now, (up to 70mph i think). You fail if you don't use your mirror enough, you fail if you cross your hands on the wheel, you fail if you slightly cut a corner. It is quite tough but we still somehow get morons passing over here too.

Don't forget you now have to pass a 'hazard awarness' test on a computer simulator, fail to spot enough hazards or the wrong hazards and you fail.

Fail the written test or the hazard awarness and you can't take the practical.

You also have to be 17 just to start learning to drive in the UK, still we do not have to go through retests at set periods. This is one thing that we could do with in the UK, because even with the test above we still have to many people on our roads with no idea of how to drive well. In particular lane disipline on the motorways in none existant.

 

[CDailey]

Jeeze. That tough. All we have to do is get atelast an 80% on a written test to get a learners permit and get atleast an 80% (I think it's 80%) on the actual driving test.

 

[Roo]

Basically, in the UK, if you cause someone to slow down when they wouldn't have to, you fail. I failed my first driving test when I pulled away from the side of the road and forgot to look in my mirror. A car was coming down the road and had to slow a lot to avoid me. At the end of the test the guy who was marking me said if the car hadn't been there, I'd have passed.

If my sister can get a license here, I think its too easy! We live in TN, and its nothing like the test they have in UK. She didnt have to parrell park or anything like that. No U- turns nothing! I know that in different states it varies but in TN its way too easy!

I cant wait to get my permit, a few months from now, if Im correct in 2 months and 6 days!

One hilerious moment, one of my cousin in Alabama failed 4 time I think on the actually driving test. The really funny one was the 3rd one, where she forgot to wear her seatbelt the whole damn test. After she parked the car and was done, the teacher then said... "You forgot to buckle your seatbelt... you FAILED!"

When my dad told me I was actually dieing from laughter.

 

[vladimir]

its the same in germany, i am just doing my license and you have to learn a lot.

you have to spend 14 lessons (each one and a half hour) in theoretical class before you can take the theoretical test, were you need to have over 90% right.
the theoretical test consists of 30 questions (it may be 60 now since the first of july). those questions are from a catalogue of about 900 questions and they are about everything on the issue car and traffic, questions about how drugs influence you, about signs, how to behave in certain situatons, technical questions, speed limits, braking distance, physics, the environment, rules and laws etc...

when you have passed the test you are allowed to do the practical test, which is like in britain a 45 minutes test where you have to do all kinds of maneuvres and if you do one or two mistakes like forgetting to look over your shoulder, setting the indicators to late, cutting a corner, driving to fast or driving to slow, not letting people cross the road, not parking the car right, etc then you fail.
and before you can take part in the test you need at least about 12 hours of practice in driving at night, driving on country roads and driving on the autobahn. plus practicing driving in the city of course, but there isn't a limit.

and then, when you finally have your license, you have a two years "probezeit". that means that when you do two mistakes like taking someones right of way, or one major mistake like causing an accident, running a red light or speeding 20 km/h above the speedlimit in your first two years, then you will already loose your licence and you have to attend driving school again for a second (but shorter) time again in order to get your licence back.

Not only are we petty stupid here in the U.S. when it comes to driving but somehow some idiot planted a seed that the problems we have are not the drivers but the cars. So they push "making the cars safer" all the time, yet it's the idiot behind the wheel that you have to focus on. Till then nothing will change when it comes to accidents here. Europe and Racing will continue to prove this time and time again.

That is pretty funny, I heard someone was taking a test and did a right hand turn from the left turn lane.

 

[sUn]

I didn't like the video.

 

[rollazn]

It wasnt all that good. Just some roll on racing, to me its pretty boring!

 

[Jay]

Yeah it was abit boring.

 

[the_undrtaker89]

The boxes covering the lincense plates were cool. that was quite entertaining not knowing if they would get bigger or smaller.

 

[Jay]

Yeah it was fun watching those boxes dance.

 

[CDailey]

I actually liked the video. It was kinda funny when the M3 started catching up to the M5 and the RS6 and had to back off.
