    Well, I think GoPro needs to replace their commerical, considering how many are tossed around during the video.

    First thought - I could do that...if I had his car, support, and talent

    Second thought - Steve McQueen did that back in 68

    I had to look up the current meaning of hoon

    Actually I think hoon is a more recent UK colloquialism of 'hooligan'?

    Funny you should mention Bulliitt, I've been looking at this map and these pictures lately.
