Yeah. Of course, the only thing they're likely to "beat" is the bodywork 
of their precious sports car when it smashes into another vehicle.

I don't know about other countries, but here that kind of thing is 
illegal. (Not that this stops anybody...)

I don't know why, but people who drive expensive sports cars seem to 
have the mentality that it's their road and everybody else is required 
to get out of *their* way, and that the rules to not apply to them. As 
if the world is put there for their own personal convinience or 
something... grr!
