Hey Look - the bridge near Magnus Walkers' shop...
Re-gentrification?

LOL at the OJ chase.
How'd he get all that water in the river?

So cool. When I was in High School, a Mustang like that would have been a wet dream come true.

How do you know you're getting old? You're a dodgy old fart who rates this thread 1 star. That's how.

Sort of an understatement but he is one hell of a good driver....

I can't believe they let him mark the streets up that much. You could see where they'd already done all of the stunts in practice or previous takes, that's a lot of tire marks! When he was pulling into Chinatown Plaza, I thought, "no way they let him mark that up..." And sure enough, he just went in and out.
I thought it was ok, it would have been cooler to me if he just went insanely fast through all of those obstacles instead of drifting and doing endless donuts. Doing donuts in an 800 hp car is not real exciting to me, rally driving is. If anyone is wondering why I'm so set on an AWD sporty car right now, imagine a bit slower version of this on snow and you have winter driving in MN for people like me. ![]()

With these skills, how come he's not tearing it up in WRC??

Because he makes far more money from DC shoes.

And he probably would not make the cut. Completely different set of skills, (or is that, "skilz"?), between actual racing and doing tricks and stunts.
Before everyone jumps down my throat for knocking the guy, I have respect for great stunt drivers and especially MC stunters. But you won't see any of them in the top levels of racing, it's a completely different world.

Great, all the little boys are going to sliding all over the streets with their cars now. Oh yeah, LAPD, closing off streets, running through China Town will cost them a few bucks. Pretty cool driving, crazy actually. That dude with the low rider has big balls.

For the most part, the clip was fun to watch.
But I have to wonder - what was the purpose? Is this promoting a video game, movie, or what? He can't be making so much money off of "hoonigan wear" that it warrants this. If he is, then Shaun needs to hurry up and make a video for his t-shirt & clothing line!

Got the garage exit on the first take! One set of marks.

Gotta love the location(s). And the car. And the production values.
The driving antics? No thanks, not for me, although I am sure there is a lot of skill involved. |

Well, good for him for actually attempting racing. Doesn't look like he got too far, though.

Great video! I can't thank them enough for not including some terrible hip hop or techno music.
