take this part of that link --> cNVrMZX2kms

and put it inside the tags that appear when you click the "You Tube" Button (only in advance mode)



Or you can manually type out [.youtube]cNVrMZX2kms[./youtube] without the periods to do the same thing.

Z-rated tires don't exist anymore.

They used to mean the tires were tested over ~240km/h.

Now the rating system goes much higher (300km/h).

You can get V-rated winter tires (tested to 240 km/h).

I thought most of these types of lotteries had a cash option to avoid these types of situations.

I would imagine you need to receive it before you get the title, and would need the title to sell it.

I have some empathy for the guy, when I was 16 I wrapped an IROC around a tree in winter conditions. Not same, I know, but it hurts to see this guy suffer the way I once did. Stay strong crazy Lambo driver, stay strong!

Many do, this one didn't. I'm not sure why he didn't just have it shipped directly to an exotics dealership.

Sooo... it worked?

Regarding the Lambo, if you're going to crash it for the insurance money, shouldn't you not be speeding when you do that?

No, that was an entirely different kind of suffering.

A tumor put me in the wheelchair.
