Motorcycle vs. Car Drift Battle

#1 Unread post by Grey Thumper »

I have to admit that it's really well shot and edited, but I find this video incredibly annoying and borderline offensive.

It is awesome? But wasn't this posted before? Either way - still a fun video.

I'd have no problem with the clip if it was just a couple guys fooling around with GoPros. The fact that it's a company ad makes things a bit different. Anyway, if the LEOs on this forum aren't bothered by the vid, I guess I'm taking it too seriously.

I think the vid is well done as well, but I also think it was done in bad taste. The shooting at the end is not needed to sell the products being advertised.

It was a campy funny video that was extremely well done. It had great riding and driving down an closed section of hwy in WA (wanna go there) where nobody was put at risk. When I watch a movie where there is a bad guy or socially unacceptable behavior I don't worry about whether or not someone is going to be offended by the story, or portrayed as a bad- cop. I enjoy it. It was fun. So if this did offend anyone I offer the following advice (in fun only)
