Wow. I watched a couple minutes of that and just felt so uncomfortable I shut it down. Yikes.

I have no idea why the passenger has not asked to get out of the car before the driver stuck him into a wall... totally depressing to watch indeed.
I think God put a Z06 in the dudes' hand for a reason ... let's hope he doesn't hurt anybody in the process to meet his maker.

The Vette was impressive: the driver was a f'in idiot.

I didn't watch most of the video, but the corvette driver seems to have some obvious issues, Porsche driver doesn't seem much better (who in their right mind would drive anywhere near that idiot corvette driver AND he wags the tail of the porsche pretty roughly which means he is loosing time to recover traction).

What really scares me though is that there would be a group that would allow someone with two half days of experience into what appears to be an open passing group. Also, WTF, where are the black flags from that BS? Corner workers know when things are about to get bendy and the event organizers should have heard...

Wonderful comments by video uploader:

The Corvette driver has two half days of experience of track time and the driver of the Porsche GT3 is a pro race car driver with a race team. You can see from the slipping that the Porsche GT3 is being taken to its limits. The Porsche GT3 driver ultimately waves us by after being repeatedly out handled and out horse powered by the 2015 Corvette Z06 Auto with the Z07 package. At the Fontana Raceway track

It's not an open passing group... the vette is just passing anyways.

So who was the organizer for that? I want to make sure I never go to one of their events. Seeing that stuff is scary and not seeing black flags is worse! This was like lemons drivers with way nicer cars!

I couldn't watch it all, I kept cringing every other corner. And that 'pass' at around the 11:30 mark, dubya tee eff. I was half expecting Robert Duvall to start talking about love taps.

"Eat a d!ck you f*ckin little b!tch". LMAO!!!!! I lost it when I saw that.

Never mind the dude cut the fuckin track like 3 times. Dude drives like he's racing on Suzuka circuit in Gran Turismo. #imakemyownshortcuts

Self driving cars can't come fast enough when I see this. Of course, it's obvious the car IS the one doing the hard part here...

I couldn't watch the whole thing either. Yikes.

He sure had a death grip on that steering wheel ...
