Here is a vid from my track day last Saturday. I was riding along with my instructor Rob Robinette in a S2000 chasing down a $500,000.00 SLR McLaren. Watch as we turn onto the front straight and the SLR rockets away.

At 2:55 the ABS fails and we almost rear end a Boxter. You can hear me yell "good save"!

Good times!

Sorry that it's not in the 370Z. But the SLR is just amazing. Although the lowly Honda eventually catches and passes the Mercedes super car.

The McLaren driver was a schmoe! get him in a '96 Plymouth immediately!

Yup, nice save when ABS failed.
