Car Videos to Brighten Your Weekend: The Money Doesn't Buy Sense Edition

Videos to Brighten Your Weekend

Last week we looked at mostly videos of Japanese sports cars, this week we are looking mostly at rich guys doing stupid things. There is a video of a guy driving in his garage and another of Lamborghinis driving way too fast on the road.

We obviously do not encourage anyone to drive this stupidly on public roads. The guys in these videos deserve whatever bad things happen to them. 

The first video shows two Corvettes drag racing from a stoplight and things going horribly wrong. 

The next video shows two Lamborghinis - an Aventador and a twin-turbo Gallardo drag racing on public roads at speeds of 150+mph. These guys are even more stupid and dangerous because you can see traffic packing up behind them before they take off. Thanks to Autoblog for posting this video today. 

This guy is at least being stupid in his own home. Although, I doubt insurance would cover an accident. He spins his Cobra around his garage. I assume that beam in the middle of the room is load bearing, and things would be catastrophic if he hit it. 

I guess this guy is the safest among our group. There is no obvious traffic, and at least he is in the suburbs.

The next few videos move away from our theme. The first is a nearly famous car video promoting the Ruf CTR Yellowbird. It shows a professional driver on the Nuerburgring while it is closed. However, the quality of the driving is amazing. Unfortunately this video comes from an old VHS, and the quality is not great. Ruf really needs to remaster this. 

If you are not familiar with the Japanese Best Motoring series, seek it out. It stopped making original content a little over a year ago, but there is an archive of 15+ years of driving videos. This shows a drag race among a Ferrari F40, Viper GTS and Jaguar XJR-15

Finally, a very simple video of a Lamborghini Diablo revving. Just enjoy it. 

Have a nice weekend, and let us know what you think in the comments.

That dude with the Cobra inside his living room... I can't help it, he just looks like a boy playing with toy cars in his childhood bedroom to me.

Good list, but the last one is a Lamborghini Countach, not a Diablo.

Indeed, the last one is a Countach (a 25th Anniversary I believe), and not a Diablo...
