I would actually say that was a good bit of driving ( all be it was on a public road ) cornering was smooth and some nice lines taken.
I bet if anyone here could get away with doing that they would i bet through the tunnel was awesome the noise your car would be making on full chat.

No it's not your age Pete, it should be saved for the track really but many red blooded petrolheads will have strayed beyond the speed limits, however briefly, and taken gambles that in hindsight seem daft.
I can watch videos like this and enjoy them; it doesn't mean I'm going to jump into Tan's Vito and try to recreate it

This sort of thing was the norm in Japan about 10 years ago but now they have clamped down on it....probably because the rest of the world is watching. But this sort of driving and extreme speeds on motorways / racing / drifting on public roads etc wasn't frowned upon there.
I agree with Stu, it is madness really and I would never recreate anything like that over here or be involved in it. That said I am impressed with the driving quality and there didn't seem to be many bits that were actually dangerous to other road users.....more speeding than anything.
