  • Could you guys give us information on how to contact a track or a group like NASA?

  • i think people should learn how the car WORKS before being able to drive one. for something that people use everyday, the amount of knowledge the average person has of their car is disgraceful.

  • Awesome episode guys!

  • @VideoVictor68 most places at least have a drag strip...

  • The Hockenheimring is 15 minutes away from me and the Nürburgring Nordschleife is 3 hours away. Spa Francorchamps 4 hours, so I guess I have plenty opportunities to drive my car safely in an unrestricted area :-D

    Nice episode!

  • This is so true. The first time I had ever lost control of my grand marquis I learned two very important things. First I learned how to steer my way out of a slide and secondly I learned how to drift(wanna be drifts). What I'm saying is that I believe we should send all Driver Ed students into controlled spins.

  • I am 18 years old, from romania , i just got my license 1 month ago and i enjoy this show so much..you are so right.The only thing that i regret is that here in Romania we dont even have a single race track...we will be gettin one in the next few years but..I`d like to learn the limits of my car on the track somwhere it`s safe rather than drive like an idiot on the raods and risk other peoples lifes.

  • Driver education in Brazil is at the same time expensive, bureacratic and non-existent (much like other forms of education in Brazil).

  • @100littlecurses Well I've been driving for 6 weeks now and been stopped by the Police twice, driving in Ireland is a lot different than America, we learn how to race on the roads :L

  • what about my Mercedes e class...race-able?

  • There are not tracks everywhere 

  • @Karl2294 Its true. Been driving for 6 years, no accidents.
