Needfordrive.com (crazy M5 driver)

Very much a shame someone had to die, but looking at videos of his driving and seeing what he does with packed streets the road is probably best without him.
 
Shame that he died, apparently left a young wife but the guy was a dick end off.

Some people asking why he never did this on the track, well it'd probably be to do with not getting the level of thrill or rush that he got by driving like a dick in an urban environment.

Person I feel sorry for here is his young wife.
 
Judging from how hard he is having to try and keep it going in a straight line, I'd say he's running a set of Linglongs too. Poor guy, probably was just trying to have a nice sedate drive to the shops. This is what no DSC and Linglongs do!

At its base! It would be interesting to know what force your average sized tree in full leaf has to withstand from the wind.

Difficult to find hard data but some estimates put it at around 4.5t at the crown with a wind speed of 100mph. So many variables though - tree type, height, age, fullness of crown, the list goes on.

Not as much as I thought though - with that estimate being for a 12m tall tree, unless my maths is horribly wrong then assuming a car typically hits a tree at a height of about a metre then the force involved would only be multiplied by a factor of about 12, which is about 50t equivalent at the point where a car would hit and far less than a typical car crash.
