Good news is Russians now build roads where you can go 260+.

Bad new is Russians now drive on these roads at 260+ and put everyone at risk in traffic.

Its like these stupid drag racing vids but with better quality. Who cares? You got enough cash to rent some closed circuit in russia and do this properly, racing on highway is inviting an accident. They will be fine as they drive latest and greatest in automotive world but some poor shmuck late to his dacha, and couple kids might have to pay. Why? For youtube clicks. So dumb. No wonder the face mask. He knows what he's doing is wrong.

Cool post though
I wonder if cops in Moscow go after YouTube races for reckless driving pretty hard. Kind of like that guy in NY who record his lap in the city? I mean you could deduce that it's them driving when they do show their faces, but maybe the standard of proof is high like in the US? I am intrigued as well.
That's definitely the reason, good pull.

See this guy: didn't wear a facemask and is now behind bars, albeit for theft, not street racing.

Ah yeah, that guy, acted very recklessly on roads, then he jumped on another bandwagon of social justice warrior, stepped on some very wrong toes, and they used all that evidence to lock him up. Seems like order came from very high above that he cant even buy himself out of it - yet anyway, I dunno how it ended.
