Just to show him how dangerouse and out of hand things can get in a split second at those speeds and the fact he only has a loop for protection and the fact that Mark usually does 200 mph in the wet in his cardi
Just concerned for him or the driver as they are aiming for a simlar speed.
We take the piss that he is allways harping on about how fast he has gone but you dont want to see anything bad happen do ya
