my god, i havent seen anything slip around like that since the last time i tried ice skating. Anybody got numbers for whats under the hood? and no its not torque steer, that's front wheel drive cars. He just has no traction and is fishtailing aka oversteer.

Man. That's nuts. If the driver had some skill he could really put up some good numbers.

Can we fit that engine in our cars?
