man that laguna seca one was the best.

just on a hunch, i searched for 'vancouver indy'.

I can name every place those guys drove to, and the actual streets the indy ran on. too bad it's gone now. I would be getting ready for this year's race.

Good vids, but you need to find some old F1 videos when they used to use slicks. That has some amazing battles.

Maybe (hopefully) it'll be back after the Olympics...

I'd post an extended clip of just about any Daytona or Talladega finish, but I'd just be called a closet redneck if I did.

If you thought driving an F1 was impressive, think again

man tri, what road is that?

Those first two were lame.

I laughed, because the washed up drivers who can't get a seat in F1 end up there.

I'm uploading a bunch of F1 videos to google. Once they are verified I'll post the links here.

Oh, yeah? I laugh at the F1 drivers who cry after they get blisters from having to actually drive a race car.

Maybe you should think about drivers who have gone from CART/Champ Car to F1, like Jacques Villeneuve and Juan Pablo Montoya, and what they say about their time driving there.

When villeneuve entered F1, the cars were still manual drive. Now Ia gree they have become mainly auto but come 2008, they will introsuce slicks again and more manual type gearing.

I'll offer a challenge to Tricord's post. Not F1 but still fun to watch.

RUF Porsche on the Nurburgring track

At first it seems he's driving like out of control but he never falters. An attribute to his consistency.

What's the video from? Just a demo of the car or driver, or is it from a movie or something?

I came across the video on some random individuals website a couple years back. The driving is all live. I believe it's done by a driver hired by RUF to demo their cars (could be wrong).
