    He might be reckless doing that but Ferrari must like the marketing from half a million IG followers. Must be worth a LaFerrari allocation.

    True, up until the point he seriously hurts, or heaven forbid, kills someone. Then Ferrari lawyers/spokespeople will be tripping over themselves to distance themselves from Mr. Cartu. At any rate, not the sort of behavior one expects from a brand ambassador...T

    Even though I am not convinced that was clever or necessary, I am not sure either it was actually very dangerous - he seems to be able to "perform" these while maintaining a really low speed.

    That jerk off did donuts in a piazza near Florence during last years Mille Miglia and completely pissed off the organizers to the point where they wanted to kick him out.

    On a side note, after he ran Corso Pilota, the staff referred to him as a rich clown.

    As far as I saw, people had to back away whilst he was doing donuts because of how close he was getting.

    "Very dangerous" seems pretty appropriate given how easily someone could have been hurt if the crowd stayed.

    Imo.

    Cartu is a snake and absolutely not a good ''brand ambassador'' or whatever he call himself for Ferrari. A complete and utter lying tit.

    * Look up his so called companies that he claims made him millions, yet no one in the field has EVER heard of him. In fact, you can't even contact him or anyone of that site! He's now dropped that company from his wikipedia (written by himself, of course). Dig deeper and you'll find loads.

    An extract from an article

    "Plaintiffs claim that Joshua Cartu was the Dice CEO and effectively had control of the entire Dice business. According to Cartu's hiring documents, however, Rome Partners, not Dice, was his employer.4 Cartu started on March 1, 2008. [Amended Complaint, Attachment 19]. His base salary was $165,000 annually with a 20% raise yearly. [Amended Complaint, Attachment 19]. He was eligible for a cash bonus equal to 5% of the profits based on the financial performance of the company. [Amended Complaint, Attachment 19]. Plaintiffs claim that Cartu used his control over the company to steal passwords to romecasino.com, diceelandcasino.com, romepartners.com in 2009, change the passcodes, take control of the websites, and direct the profits from the domain sites to his own bank accounts in the form of bonuses and other compensation in excess of the amounts in which he was contractually entitled."

    did you see how close the car got to people? All it takes is for an overly excited person to make the wrong step forward... or even a member of the crowd pushing closer in excitment and suddenly we have bodies in the air...

    Its dangerous. "Performing" a doughnut at low speed... they are all fairly low speed... its the change in direction and the movement of a 3500 pound object with basically two law mower blades attached is the danger to the public.

    Also, lets not forget he crossed traffic...

    Im all for stupid **** in cars... but do it in a parking lot or in a slightly more controlled environment.

    He dodged a bullet that day... but sadly the experience will only embolden him to do it again and perhaps even less cautiously next time

    I hope he learns more about driving so that he hurts no one.
    He seems lacking talent of driving in my eye.
    Even doing donuts, he lacks control when he hesitate at the first moment.
    He should have put more gas for the first part to reduce the radius.
    He shows up his upscale living for reasons.
    All the guys who ended up being a scam did the same.

    May be not a bad thing as gt2rs production is not limited, and with turbo and price take of 300k, your option is very broad. I think GT3 is off much better value, imho.

    My bad. Somehow I was under impression that Porsche will do something to deter flipper by increasing sale price and production.

    If you want a limited RWD piece of hardcore P fun; Oldtimer had Walter Wolf's 935 Kremer K3 street car for sale last year at techno essen; i'm guessing they may still have it ;)
