Whoah... I can see soooooo many places where I would crash if I drove that track.  Never knew it was that blind!

Stefan Bellof set a lap time of 6:11 on the same track as in the clip, so 30 seconds faster than Derek Bell!!

Bob,

Just as amazing, is Bell being so calm, just like a regular cruise in the country side.

To me the commentary sounded as if it was added afterwards.

Great video. He makes it look very easy but we all know it isn't. I have a hard time getting all the around just in a video game.

How is it possible that after electricity has traveled through hundreds of miles of power line then hundreds of feet (or yards) of romex in our home, that changing the last three feet of wire with something exotic, expensive (cool looking, and packaged in a pricey box) is going to make a difference?
