Morons gonna moron. Is that what counts as 'fighting' these days? Embarrassing.

Driving fast in a straight line. Thank god track days are not like this. Why didn't the organizers kick them all out?
It is a sad state of affairs where these youtubers can make so much money to have these flash cars. One day the money will dry up and they will be back to working the night shift at macdonalds.

Been to Goodwood lately?Indeed.
I'd always had in my head that events like VMax were typically populated with wealthy business types, inherited money, rich enthusiasts etc. Champagne drinkers and wax jackets...
The demographics here don't line up with what I expected
Yeh same, are we getting old?
Hahaha they just trying to live their lives a quarter mile at a time

They have been banned at least.
From what it looks like the organisers need to make it more professional with more marshalls. They should have been kicked out as soon as arguments started. There was no one with authority there to tell them to **** off, so it just escilated.

Yeah doesn't look like there was any security and the car owners were happy to watch their lambos and Bentley's getting scratched
An event of opposite spectrums
Anyway I thought the whole 5 bags race thing was a publicity stunt, but judging by what happened yesterday it clearly wasn't . Shame things had to become personal rather than left to the actual racing which is the whole point of such an event.
Someone mentioned hooded blacks and Asians, fact is most car events are packed with chavs of all colours. Shame race and colour has to be mentioned because in my eyes there's just good and bad people.

There are still plenty of events which are not ruined. Goodwood, most track days, Rally GB etc. Plus most tracks put on events for the petrol head that cost peanuts to enter. Cadwell park do a really good rally/fireworks show every year in November.
It always seems to be the "drag racing" type that this is attracted to. You never really see it on track days as there is a lot more to going fast than some bolt on turbo's and de-cat downpipes. Also half of those "tuning houses" they promote are nothing more than generic remap shops that sell bolt-ons. I bet hardly any of them have any real engineering prowess to their business.

Crazy. I try to avoid watching videos like these as I know I’m contributing to the people creating it getting paid 
Unsururpsing but hey-ho. They should have just had the £5k race and settled the dispute that way instead of letting it unfold the way it did.
As for the ownership, my understanding is that Ricky LLF, does actually own the M5, GTR and Hellcat. The financed M4 was paid off at the time and has been sold since.
DMO owns the E63s and a charged EK9 iirc. Not sure why the whole ownership thing tends to come into the discussion with the amount of motorists in general that have car payments and do silly things in one way or another, be it modifying or getting to or above 70mph as quickly as possible
Yes it's difficult sometimes as it is entertainment whether you like it or not.Crazy. I try to avoid watching videos like these as I know I’m contributing to the people creating it getting paid
I watched DMO video and he portrays Ricky starting on wrench studio boys, who were then asking Craig to remove him from the event which didn't happen, with tempers flaring Ray decided to take things into his own hands by rushing into Ricky.
Also DMO was banned from the event so shouldn't have attended anyway, let alone get involved in a beef.
So as mentioned the stewarding and security was **** poor and less people will attend future vmax events as a result.

Disgraceful, both should be banned from future events and hopefully the companies that work with them will disassociate themselves in the future too.
PCP or HP I think, modified to the point of meth injection, BMW threatened repossession if he didn't pay the balance, he refinanced it elsewhere and paid BMW the balance

Some of the posts by members here are shocking. Yes the behaviour shown is completely unacceptable, but you can't simply assign it to race

guy in grey was with dmo when they were travelling up. He can be seen In some of the streams dmo did going on about it.
Like I said. Some fabrication to his version of events.
Yeah always two or more sides to the story, neither of which entirely the truth
Oh yes I see he's in a video where that one fella is already cussin and raging pretending to fight. It seems the explanation titled an apology (lol) is quite the way off.
