These are several videos (including a night race and a 50 car free-for-all) from Instagram user dreamtrackbuiler of Hot Wheels racing down a closed water slide. All the races are pretty action packed, although I did just lose a fair amount of money betting on them. I probably should have
This is a video of the very Britishly named Tiff Needell taking a man for a quick spin around the Thruxton Circuit (the UK’s fastest) in a BMW M2. I learned a lot by watching it. Mostly, how much some people nervously laugh when they think they’re about to die.

This is a video of P!NK the border collie demonstrating her skills by blasting through an agility course at ludicrous speed, beating the next-best competitor by over 2 seconds. Such agility! For reference, I just watched one of my dogs fall off the couch trying to scratch his back on
