[protojason]

Crazy..guy in car films a car fly past him on the right. Unless somebody can name this car by it's exhaust note. . . .

ps. hope it's not a repost.

wow....ok, i'ld like to know how fast the car with cam was going just judge the other car....

 

[altspace]

Yes, repost. Sorry.

 

[sleeper3]

holy poop that was fast... no matter how slow the other car is going.

 

[lynnriderm6]

jesus chirst on a bicycle lol that was fast

 

[BPboiler3]

since im a nerd I figured out how fast the cam car was moving....at the beginning of the vid it was traveling about 40 mph and at the end it was just under 30 mph...so the cam car was slowing down while filming this vid ...so that solves part of the mystery haha


assuming the vid was within the US...and also assuming that the road has been re-paved since 1995

wow you are a big nerd.....timed the lines did ya??? so the other car was doing around 60-70 maybe 80if the cam car was doing around 35ish

haha cool. explain how u figured that out

 

[bgibb68]

most highway lines are at set spacing....all you need is the distance and time it

 

[323]

ahh basic physics. v=d/t. but howd u figure it just by watchin the vid.

well i'm not a big enough nerd to sit and time it......just replay it and watch the lines while holding a stop watch

 

[Outlawstar98]

Thats if its in the US LOL, but I think the guy was going more about 60ish-80ish easly.

I was thinking the dude in the cam car was going around 40... I don't have a reason for thinking that, it's just how fast it looks.


Still though, the other dude is there and gone FAST.

yeah...i didnt bust out a stop watch or a slide rule for it...but I was curious...here is how I did it:

I could not find a great source for US federal guidlines on line spacing, I did find that the line length in 1995 was 15 ft with a 30 ft gap, and since then it has been revised to 10 ft length with 30 ft gap...not sure when that change was made so I ran it both ways

at the beginning of the vid you can count 3 lines+gaps in 2 seconds...so doing quick math you get 67.5 ft/sec (1995-earlier) and 60 ft/sec (~1995-today)...which is 46 mph and 40.9 mph respectively.

then after the car passes you can count 4 lines+gaps in about 3 seconds...which equates to 60 ft/sec (1995-ealier) and 53.3 ft/sec (~1995-today)...which is 40.9 mph and 36.6 mph respectively.

with as rediculous as that video was...alittle bit of rediculous calculations and assumptions were in order
haha finally my education is paying off

Well if you pause it the headlights appear to be a 997 of some sort. Sounds like a 911 Turbo...but who knows. Definitely think it's a Porsche though.

 

[sleeper3]

lol I'm trying to hear what they're saying. it's either bumble bee or something in a different language.

 

[Parad0x01]

I think its a porsche too

 

[mhrebin]

its gotta be an MSP. has to.

 

[323]

hahahaha

 

[xtrememps]

its gotta be an MSP. has to.

Psshaw! It's clearly an MS3 upon further review.
