Blown Holden Ute Does Double Roll During Burnout, Crowd Goes Wild!
When you've got a supercharged, tubbed and roll-caged Holden Ute, burnouts, donuts and general hoonulence are inevitable, but this... this is hooning art. It seems you have to go to Australia for the real high-proof stuff, as this starts out simple and safely enough with a gross display of horsepower at a sanctioned local race track, but then the driver decides on a donut, and things go horribly, awesomely wrong as the car flips on it's side — twice — and then drives away to the roar of the crowd. Truly, we have much to learn from from this advanced civilization.

I Dunno, You Think Something's Wrong With The Alignment?
When you bash the Benz into some unyielding object and the entire left front is a mangled mess, what do you do? Why, you recognize that the right side is still fine, which means you can still (sort of) control the car, and you keep going, of course! We're impressed by the high speed these Euro-hoons manage to sustain here, but it appears that long-term roadworthiness may have been compromised. [Arbroath, via BoingBoing]

Lucky for this guy, he "bought it brand new just 2 hav fun and burn rubber in. warranty dosent matter and money is not the crteria here!!!! if u know wat im sayin!!" Word. Video after the jump.
