guy's this isn't funny at all. It could have any car. The problem I have with the Video is, 140 MPH and he's holding a video cam. The car is rated for 118MPH, did he have the proper tires on the car? If not when it started bussing why not slow down? If he had of lost a front tire he could have damaged more than the exhaust system and drivetrain, he could have totaled the car and killed his self.

Ok, I'm not the brightest light in the bunch, because I've driven mine up to 126 MPH ONE time. (when I first got it)

Personlly I'm glad he did not kill himself, but know he's got a car he is going to have to fix himself.
Warrenty should not cover stupid.
