Man, too have the chance to wake up everymorning and mash your car on your own "track" would be amazing, but i'd be nervous in that 911 and all those tree's and bridges.

Yeah, wider with more runoff would be better.

awd, I dunno tree's aren't that dense think you can avoid them. Not like hes trying to hit some turn at 100+ entry speed and wreck. Looks safe to me, except for porsches seem to like fires

He probably needs to repave with tarmac for it to grip... that fancy stuff is slick in the rain (which it is wet in the vid).

While not in the same league, I've made a 3/8th mile track at our house for my kids:

BTW, there's a difference between being "rich" and being "wealthy".
Porsche Track dude is wealthy.
