That guy really is an idiot.

"but after 150 I can't touch them"

"if I can get into second gear I can run with them"

Hahahaha. Sure.

i know what the guys in the Carrera GT are thinking...

"Stupid, annoying American"

How was that guy driving at 160 with one hand on the wheel and one on a video camera? The GT's pulled to about a 1/4 mile ahead of him and he's claiming that he's keeping up with them. Come on...

"here I come"

Yeah, after they have already slowed down for traffic.

A co-worker commented that he felt he was getting dumber as he watched the video. I am in awe that someone could be stupid enough, not only to film with one hand while driving with the other (and commentating) in a convertible mustang going 150+, but to think they stood a chance against the GT.

I agree with that driver being a bit stupid in trying to film while driving at the same time. There was also a lot of traffic around which creates a lot of danger.

Sad thing is that he never stood a chance agaisnt those GTs. Dunno why he would even try.

I'm sure it's a rush to run with a car like that, but this guy has lost his mind... By the time he hit 150 I could not even see them anymore...

"hanging with them"

yea, that was more than a bus length a second.

I have to say though, props for the guy making the video, regardless of how stupid the antics were. It's not everyday that you will be able to see these cars blasting down the highway.
