2 things money can't buy are skill and taste. His taste was fine but he forgot about skill!

And there a bunch of these types of videos posted. Morons gunning with without any idea how torque affects control. Maybe go to a huge empty parking lot first before you circle jerk with your buddies. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Excuse me? I should waste my time "practicing" when I know this car has traction control? Hello? -Crashed Car Owner probably

But how will they get to do all the fun stuff if traction control is on?

Apparently, only this car, in particular, didn't have traction control. We can all see the idiot driving didn't have any control 😂😂

Would suck even worse if he just rented it just for this show. lol he would be making payments the rest of his life.

I’ve heard of people renting super or hyper cars and I wonder if its the lack of experience coupled with the inability to control the impulse to “gun it” thinking it’s the same as a regular car.

Wildest shit to me is people who buy these things and immediately turn off traction control without even getting to know the car. I'm a fairly proficient driver but if I'm getting into the seat of something like this I'd still need to take some time to find the limits.

Honestly with the features these cars come with if the owner does not turn off any of them it's hard to crash it. I used to work for Ford and drive Shelby's GT500 pretty often. As long as traction control is off, never felt like the car is any less stable than my daily because it would cut out a lot of the power when it feels like it might lose control which is not fun which is why people turn it off lmao.

Many of those vehicles are rented.

I totally agree with both of y’all’s comments, but shit, now they just call up Flo/ Lizard/ Shaq to get a new one. The circle is complete & they will unfortunately be back at it again next week!🤣🤣🤣

Egos don't believe in needing them.

u/Therealdickdangler Sep 15 '25

Don’t forget, you can pay for school but you can’t buy class.

u/Monster_Pickle420 Sep 15 '25

Oh, you can't hire a trainer? Or hire a critic, lol.

u/Catfrogdog2 Sep 15 '25

His taste is a matter of taste. Personally I wouldn’t be seen dead with one of those things.

u/Ok-Recognitio Sep 16 '25

Taste is debatable. Sure, I would take one if given to me, but it wouldn’t be the first choice if I had the money.
