A moment of madness thread.

In alphabetical order. AUDI

Locked in a Cape mountain road tussle with Russell Bennett in a pair of OG RS 5 coupes. Traction totally off. Bobbing and weaving into blind bends at blind speeds 🙈
B is BMW M3 Coupe Frozen Edition

Kyalami race track launch event. Long sweeping right. Momentarily forgot to steer into pending left haipin as i was bewitched by the unbelievable noise coming out of its Yoshimura developed pipes 🙈
Made it!
C is for C63

240kmh on the Phakisa Raceway High speed oval alongside a positively solid wall.

Guy next to me: Take to 250.

Me, shaking: Fook Noooo 🙈
D is for Drifting.

I LOVE THAT S%+T
E is for Electricity

This one time (not long ago actually)in Shhhaguar i-Pace i found myself neck and neck with a GS bike, this from standstill.

Tshaba the electric future

P. S. Porsche Taycan launching in SA now in July. Watch car twitter 🤣
F is for F-Type

One moment I'm overtaking on my way to the Vaal region, next moment hard on the brakes. Next moment, 'Why is the wheel bouncing away from the car, and fookin' ell why am I sliding 😭😭?

I'd been shunted, top down even.
G is G20

Driving the new BMW M340i still in camo at Circuit Portimoa following DTM star Augusto Farfus in an M2 Comp while drifting through nearly every corner.

Best fun I've had with my clothes on 🙈
H is for Honda Civic Type R

GZ: Heh Mhlolo monna the dynamic prowess of this car is on another level.
Me: Better handler than anything your brand sells?
GZ: I didn't say that 😂😂
Me: 🤣🤣🤣🤣 you didn't need to

Controversy in my last ever ride with GZ. RIP
I is for i30 N

Who'd have thunk it?
Hyundai ayisafani. All it took was a 30min drive in the morning to realize that they have a class act here.
J is for Jungle Baby.

Despite the tarmac histrionics that i love I'm an off road junkie. There's a mountain range surrounding Mamelodi. I've ascended one peak at the wheel of a Toyota Prado, circa 2002
K is for Kaiju

Which means a mythical beast in Japanese. Much like Godzilla, which i once managed to wring out 284km/h in. Shhhhh🙈
L is for Lumina SS

Once on a photoshoot with the then new SSV, ou Mikey Skelton handed me the keys to this one in pic to elicit some donuts in.
Don't be fooled by anyone, the best is the sedan with a manual box. Totally bonkers to drive minus TC.
M is for M5, the F10 to be precise.

Rushed into BMW M5 which had been out on Aldo Scribante. Corner 5, throttle , arse out, arms flailing. WTF?
Pro Racer drove minus TC🙄 video evidence below.

N is for N430

Few situations can match the absolute thrill of shouting off like a drunk yob through JHB CBD in the middle of the day in a swarm of stop anywhere taxis like this Aston Martin. A rest STOP in the heart of Braamfontein was in need.
O is for Old Cars

Which i dig, a lot. Dicing a BMW 325iS at the wheel of a 333i in the new millennium was a surreal experience. The result was to be expected though.

333i>325i.
Where was was I? Oh....
P is for POWER

Many have thrilled but few have delivered quite like Porsche.

The most sensational moment was with the new 911 down a mountain pass in Cape Town. I've never accelerated faster, braked deeper, or cornered harder than on that day.
Q is for QV

I love Alfa Romeos. I have driven many over the years, including the mad 146 GTA and the awesome Guilia QV however, the wildest run was on the streets of Vosloorus🙈in a 4C coupe. It's a tidy psychopath.
