If they're wreckless, what's the problem?

I mean it's not like they're having wrecks or anything.

Honestly, What Gives?
It's like "driving under the influence." If the driver has not met, or exceeded, the threshold of "influence," everything should oughtta be OK, I reckon.

Am I the only one that was kinda hoping that one of them were gonna lose it? Total disregard for the other people on the road. Whatever.

That's no ordinary wreckless driver, it's Camilo Pardo, trendy Detroit loft resident and the guy who happened to design the car. Here's a quick profile.

This reminds me of the group of kids on motorcycles that I saw flying up I-75 a few times over the summer. They had to be doing 120+ riding in between cars. Really scary and dangerous. I called the state police and they said they know all about these guys.

Hospitals like to call them "donor-cycles"... good way to get donated body organs..... and as that one commedian likes to say "it's time to cull the herd".....

I know one of the riders, they can do Toledo to Detroit in 20 minutes. Too fast for me.

Again, if he's wreckless, there's no problem. That means he's not having wrecks or causing others to have wrecks.

Now if he's reckless, that's another matter.

These guys are amateurs…..now if they would have done in through the streets of Detroit at 5 am on a Sunday to minimize problems then I might be impressed. You want to see someone with balls check this video out…it’s from the 60s but still gets me. I think he blew through 16 red lights, almost nailed a few pedestrians and cars….but it is dramatic. Done with a Ferrari…in Paris

It's from the 70's, and I'm pretty sure it was a Mercedes SEL. Done in the early morning on Sunday, though.

I love the English professors on this site.

**atl_runner** · November-30-10, 09:16 AM

The roads look terrible.. and that ramp, the worst!

**Detroitnerd** · November-30-10, 09:52 AM

Jimbo: Videotaping this crime spree is the best idea we ever had!

**wvernon** · November-30-10, 10:15 AM

I wonder if grandpa will ever flip off his turn signal?

**Gannon** · November-30-10, 10:44 AM

I'll have to watch it more thoroughly again, but I fail to see where they endangered anyone. Their cars were always under absolute control, and both vehicles were being piloted by people who know how to drive at those speeds.

I do not see anyone cut off...nor hear ANY screeching of tires.

I used to play tag with Camillo once and again, whenever we crossed paths when I was driving that Audi A4 Avant. He was always surprised what that thing could do, keeping up with him until the straightaways.

The people endangering others are those meandering along in the passing lane for no reason...that seems to happen a lot in this video. In Europe? People would SEE those enthusiasts approaching and KNOW to get the hell out of the way.

I do NOT feel the same about those motorcycle drivers who snake through traffic and split lanes. They should get Belle Isle for a few hours every week to rage around...and we should turn that expanse of concrete into a gymkhana track.

Go Camillo, Go!

NO ONE is ever under "absolute control" of a vehicle at high speeds. Professional driver or not, at these speeds any mistake, mechanical failure or unexpected reaction from another driver could be tragic.

I don't care if someone wants to risk their own life, but doing this on a public road full of innocent drivers and their children shows complete disregard for the lives of others. THESE GUYS ARE COMPLETE ASSHOLES!

Ever lose a tire at 120? I have it's not fun, the car goes away quick. Would never want to have that happen on the street.

Absolutely. Do not try this without Z rated tires. Good tip.

A couple of years ago I stumbled into Camilo Pardo's loft on Woodward...I had had a few...how I gained access I still don't know. At the time I didn't know who he was...and when introduced, he seemed totally down to earth. Any way...that's all I got.

**Gannon** · November-30-10, 10:55 AM

The notes always said Ferrari Dino. We watched it in a high school French class back in 1979, in a parochial school! Very inspiring. Got me to try to get on each F1 course through downtown in the 80s...I always succeeded!
