This Amazing Aussie V8s Moment Is Corner Commitment Done Right
Scott McLaughlin may have won the Gold Coast 600 round of the Australia Supercars series, but if there were a prize for ‘ballsiest moment’, the victor surely would have been James Courtney.
The 37-year-old showed amazing commitment at Surfers Paradise Street Circuit’s beach chicane during the Shootout round, coming incredibly close to hitting the wall. We challenge you to watch the video above without clenching hard.
Courtney bagged fourth in the Shootout, finishing sixth in the race. McLaughlin’s victory boosted his 2017 championship hopes meanwhile, with gap to current leader Jamie Whincup closing.
Growing up on a diet of World Rally Championship highlights and lengthy Gran Turismo 2 sessions, a life in cars was as good as inevitable for Matt.

I didn’t clench….
I sh!t myself
I did clench… and then there was an explosion!
my balls clenched hard
You know your driving style is amazing when world famous drivers comment on a video about it 😂
I didn’t clench, just opened my eyes wider
It was a great race!
Don’t try this if you’re not a race car driver or Australian because this might happen.
There is a unbelievable possibility that a Ford Ka might have a bit less grip than a V8 Supercar Holden 😱
That car has some serious grip and driver has some death star sized balls!
Just gonna leave this here…
probably the weight of those giant balls kept him from hitting the wall.
I doff my cap to you, sir. Well played.
Literally me in Assoluto Racing

If he had a Ford he would have crashed into the stands.
And then barrel right into the sidewalk
