I like to put things into perspective-

1) He is in a specially modified car to do this.
2) He is a pro race car driver.
3) All of the roads are closed for him and all road circumstances are under control.
4) They try each of these shots 10s if not 100s of times... you can see burn marks and skid marks all over that video before the scenes.
5) We are not seeing anything here that we have not seen before and all of these videos are the same.
6) The OJ bit and the lowrider bit were the most interesting parts and a bit funny and they had the least to do with impressive driving.

I take all the above into consideration and then I think about the crazy Georgian guy who filmed himself driving through the streets like a madmad in a stock M5 with no pro gear, no preparation with people all over the place and never skipped a beat... at that point, the Gymkhana videos become super lame (especially after 7 of them).
Where can I see this video?
google georgian m5 lol
