Dude, you're new here so, I'll let you know... It's not uncommon to see other games here... Flight simulator-like or not.
Chill. ;)

Lets see, A:  You registered yesterday, so you have NO control over the forum and B: People can post whatever games they want, this forum is primarily for FS but its very diversified.  And besides, at speeds like that he is really flying!

Greetings from the land of the autobahn, Beemers and just about every other fast car you can think of that's made in Europe!!!  I've been ziping along at over 200KPH in my 1987 Firebird Formula here and have been routinely passed by Beemers and such that made me look like I'm standing still!!!  A few years ago, there was a test pilot... er... driver from BMW that was out on the Bahn doing over 280 K's...  He passed a woman and her child who were in a Fiat Panda.  The wake of the BMW tossed the Panda 30 feet up into a tree, killing both the mother and the child.  True story... it was all over the papers here.  How may times have you seen a car speed past you and said, DAMN!!! He's flying!!!

Not all things that can fly have wings!!!

I thought that was a urban legend. :o

A Panda is quite light and unstable (it was made from Fiat, 'nuff said) but to end like that because of the slipstream of another car... the hell engine was using that BMW, a JT8D? :-?

Nah, legend.

The actual incident was like this: the test driver was driving on the left lane on a 2-lane motorway. The Panda too was on the left as he was overtaking someone. So the woman saw the BMW behind her coming with 280 Km/h and though that it would crash into her; in a panical reaction, she altered course so brutally that she lost control of her car and crashed into a tree.

This is a lot more believable indeed. No less sad, but believable. :-/
