Reminds me of the Testarossa in a Swedish town who didn't check if his new car could clear the speed bump at the end of the street before buying one...
If they used that money for philanthropic ventures, they'd be far richer than they are cruising around in an enormously expensive vehicle for which they've got anemic skills to master.
At first, yes, bit the no brain move was lifting off throttle. Once you are in the slide/drift lifting will cause the car to kick back the other way, and if you lack the experience to hold the slide until the suspensiom is unloaded you will not be able to correct accidently scandi flicking the opposite directiom you want to go, hence the fishtail before the spin out. Lower throttle input but dont lift.
Where I live, they passed supercar laws so you need a special license and turning off traction control is an offence in those vehicles. This means insurance won't cover damage done if it is off. Vehicle telemetry shows if it was off at the time.
People that buy these cars, and drive like that, tend to think they are invincible and do not need training in anything because of how awesome they are.
This could be one of the children of insanely wealthy Chinese parents who send their kids to school in California/Vancouver/Toronto, buy them a house, and buy them whatever sports cars they want… there are a LOT of those kids
And before you get mad at the kids, remember, the parents are parking their money in assets outside the power of the communist party to recover. It is not limited to only Chinese parents either. It's definitely a growing issue, and unfortunately our citizens and younger generation are being priced out of a future because real-estate is a greedy and corrupt industry. This is yet again, a wealth thing.
Money != skill... you know you can go to to a high-performance driving school and actually learn how to drive a car that routinely breaks its wheels loose when you accelerate.
Also, the looks like reckless driving (no actual control of the vehicle).
I have a buddy who races and he could probably beat these guys in my forester with them in their…. Ferrari? Whatever it is they all look the same to me
I learned to drive with a shitty Lada 1200, with high stakes and speed on a rural gravel road. One mistake in a speed of 80kmh and you're most certainly dead. Now and then, I participate in Jokkis class (every man's class) races and try not to total my trusty old BMW E36.
Even if they had the skill the right place to use them isn't on public roads in normal traffic. Even skilled people slip up now and then, so it makes sense to test your limits only when no one else is in the line of fire.
Honestly, if you’re that loaded, just hire a race local track for a day and burn rubber with your mates. Maybe even hire pros to teach you how to handle an over powered vehicle. It would be a lot of fun.
Are we using "!=" for "does not equal" now? I've still been using "=/=" ... just curious for future reference, if that's the new universally accepted notation and I should switch, or if it's just a preference thing and both are acceptable.
Sorry. Not trying to change the subject; monkey brain saw the different notation and latched on, so I had to ask. I fully agree with your comment's content, though. +1.
In C and languages inspired by it, the exclamation mark is used to indicate negation. So you'll have things like !true meaning false, and !0 meaning anything but zero. != is another one of those.
One, this is a Lamborghini and two, yes anyone can become an expert with just 2 days practice for a measly 10k a day. Good job bud you solved world hunger
One, I don't see how the brand of vehicle matters and two, who said anything about becoming an expert? Two days is literally more training than is required for a normal driver's license and all you need is basic skills at keeping the thing under control. Good job bud you found the trees, but can you find the forest?
So, Musk is the skilled genius he claims to be? Nah. It's true that without money, the skills are much harder to acquire, but it's also true that the other parts of the equation are absolutely necessary.

The not enough brain was stupid enough to turn off the driver assistance programs. If they were all on, it would be impossible for that to happen.

But it would be impossible to make the wheels do the fun spinny thing/s

Doesn't even require a driver slip up for an unexpected oil spill to ruin someone elses day on public roads.

Have seen =/= written, but not in any programming language. !=, <>, and NE are perfectly cromulent depending on the environment.

Neat. I'm not a programmer, nor have I learned anything about it, so this is interesting to see. Thanks for the info.

no, Money CAN = skills, but it requires more math.
