Well it's in Dubai...and it's at night...no other cars...if it was a track it doesn't look open...so I would say it is on the street.

Definatly the street. They drift their in rush hour! This must be a piece of cake with no cars. The street lights and makings are a dead give away that its on the street.

I beleive it's a street, a very large round about most likely. It looks like the camera guy is standing at the merging lane.

Looks like a street. Their streets look different than ours. If it was a track at night it would be lit better than that. IMHO it doesn't matter, it is Dubai, they don't sweat street racing over there as much (if you have the dough to buy a GT3).

Airport runway network perhaps?

Huge flashing sign and crazy-wide lines.

If it's not that it's a street since he calls it a roundabout. Don't see many of those on tracks... furthermore if it was a 24-hour track that is some seriously crappy lighting. Most night-lighting i've ever seen on tracks is white light

Yea I am going to have to agree with 1212 about it being filmed on a road rather than on a track. 1212 seems like a smart guy.

I've never seen a roundabout on a track.
Also, the guy has other videos. One is where a white Carrera GT is drifting around the same roundabout. He then does donuts, and gets out without a helmet.
Verdict: street.
