Firstly, this is work friendly.

Secondly, I would encourage people not to walk away from the video hot-headedly with vapours of steam anticipating a similar scenario, except replacing track with road, and ferrari's with camry's.

Thirdly, in my personal opinion, i thought it was cool, and i can't believe i watched the whole video, then watched it again! I assume the ferrari's aren't at their full potential, but the driver still seems switched on.

Video here

Anyone have a video of their own track experience? would be great to see some!

Cheers.

Cool!! Good find, that is hypnotic!

The fezzas were pulling away well down the straights and you can hear their exhaust note over the S2000 engine!! They were taking it very carefully around the corners.

It's an 'oldie but a goodie' video. The Ferraries were on a 'Sunday drive' while the S2000 was being driven very hard. Only time you see what the Ferraris are capable off is on the straights. Under braking or throught the corners the Ferraries are barely trying.

Though, it shows you that when you're on the track then the quick drivers in slow cars will be passing slow drivers in fast cars. generaly speaking, there is good 30sec per lap disparity between the drivers attending track days, while the disparity between something like a 911TT and a Barina is less than 20sec.
