BMW X6 tries to race two Lambo’s down the Chengdu-Shanghai highway
Shanghai to Chengdu is no trip around the block, its a thousand kilometer highway that stretches from the East Coast all the way to the interior lands of Sichuan and ends at Chengdu city. Now three idiots decided to make the highway into their own personal race track, a BMW X6 saw a great opportunity to take on two passing Lambo’s in a high speed dash, but it seems the X6 came second after the first Lambo rightly trounced it and the second got caught up in traffic. Can’t understand what’s being said? Our commentator in the passenger seat is speaking fast paced Sichuanese and boasting about hitting 180, then 200 and beyond.

180-200kph? Not much of a race. Could throw quite a few smaller cheaper cars into the mix that could beat them at that speed.
Watching the video makes it even funnier. Can see the look on the guys face like this is so fast. He even has the wanker air fresheners stuck in the vents and every do dad on the dash. Nice. Why do Chinese need to stuff their dash and back window with stupid little items that look like they are made for 5 year olds? Or fill the back window with pillows and tissue so there is no point in using your rear view mirror?
I know that those cars can drive fast, but they cannot reduce the distance between Shanghai and Chengdu from the real >2000 Km to 1000 Km, as written in the artical!
John – Journalistic license. I should drive that one day.
I live in Chengdu, and have driven the stretches of highway, pretty much every direction. The newer highway to Chongqing is very broad and due to tolls, not so much traffic, and I rarely saw cars on my last trip to Chongqing…so even in my piece of shit was usually sitting around 180.
It’s different if your in a racing mentality and there’s a lot of cars on the road and that you’re ignoring safety to ‘beat’ someone else.
I visit Chengdu a couple of times per year. Is the sky any other color than gray, and when is the airport being finished?
