Default Nice road, lame driver

I would never consider myself a driver good enough to push even the S2000 to its limits, much less a Ferrari, but what is UP with this guy?

Wow, the 599's brakes are so good, it can stop time! Multiple times. Over and over and over again. That site and its streaming video BLOWS.

Lots of money and no brains is the answer to your question.

Some of the responses crack me up. Hmmm, wonder why he turned the traction control off? He's having a bit of powersliding fun for the video. I wouldn't worry too much about his ability though. Powersliding a 620hp car that heavy definitely requires a little bit more credit than you guys are giving him. Richard Meaden also races a Maserati GranSport Trofeo.(article)

Anyways, watch this driver, in the wet...

...and another from Tiff Needell.

Now, if you want to gripe about it being on a public road, that's a different story.

I was waiting for him to go over the ledge. Not that I hoped for it, but there were a couple of times i did not think he could recover
