A Fast Lap Around Manhattan
 
Fastest Lap Around Manhattan 2013 - YouTube

Notetoself....


If I'm going speed thru traffic,
Video tape it all,
Post it on the web,
And boast about it on a blog....

Don't do it in a city that has abundant traffic cams.

Man, I love electronic music. But only a BMW driving douchebag with a need to draw attention to himself could like music that irritating. Horrible.

"Rendezvous Manhattan"? Not even close. Just some ill-advised fast driving on crowded thruways interspersed with 6 stoplight drag races. Nothing to see here.

regarding afroduck: you can't fix stupid!

You know, I read the title as "A Last Fap around Manhattan".

I suppose that's not unfair, given how much of a deek the driver is.

Maybe his fines will set a new record.

Nostril Cheese 09-06-2013 05:02 PM

So stupid they had to speed it up.

Up until the 16m or so, his wasn't the worst driving shown on the video. I try to stay the hay away from environments like that - both because of dudes like this, and the other dangerous slow traveling rule breaking dudes also thrown in the mix.

WOW, the Manhattan video had horrible music.....I expected a cheerleading competition to break out at any moment !

Authorities have identified the driver who allegedly posted an Internet video of himself speeding around Manhattan in just over 24 minutes.

Police on Thursday arrested 30-year-old Christopher Adam Tang of Manhattan after tracking him through his IP address, according to law enforcement sources. They charged him with reckless driving, reckless endangerment and other misdemeanor charges. Police also seized his 2006 BMW Z4.

I got bored very quickly. What a maroon.

Rick V 09-08-2013 09:43 AM

I love it when some dick like that comes past me in traffic and speeds off only to be pulled over up the road or better yet wadded up in a tree off the road by himself. I am all for having fun, and lord knows I sodomize my fair share of traffic laws but to do it with traffic around is just plain stupid

Kraftwerk 09-08-2013 12:21 PM

Probably not even the fastest lap,

& I counted a few too many close calls besides. Look where bragging got him..

NY65912 09-08-2013 01:45 PM

His drive looks like a normal ride in NYC traffic, there is always some a-hole wannabe racer on the road. Happy they caught the douche.

Said, one would hope, with the proper Bugs Bunny inflection.

Really boring piece of video. I'll stick with Rendezvous.
