    It sort of reminds me of what if feels like driving in Denpasar Indonesian 20 years ago, which is the closest I have experienced to total chaos on the roads, particularly at intersections :grin

    Nifty driving,
    Off topic.....
    but after my car getting t-boned on Monday after I drove off through an intersection through a perfectly good green light and the other car sailed through the red at 60-70kph and used my car as brakes, (I was not harmed, as it was passenger side and no other people in the car) I get nervous watching the video.

    That is terrible @bsft, glad to hear you are OK, I hope the other fool driver gets what they deserve as it would have been really bad if you had a family member as a passenger. Isn't that the new car you just got, that must make it feel even worse?

    That is just just insane. I've seen figure 8 races before, but many years ago and they were driving old, slow stock cars, station wagons, etc. Looked more like a demolition derby than a real race. Some of these guys are hauling, and it could get really ugly if things went wrong...
