    That is by far the coolest youtube video I have ever seen. That car sounds amazing, no other words can describe it. Thank you for posting this. I will now watch it again.

    BTW: they had an image gallery and a video of Ken and this car on the Crawford site a while ago. It was his first time driving the car in that video, looks like he got the hang of it ;-)

    1st off, madd props to the guy that produced the video. FINALLY someone that made a cool video and just let the car make the music. No lame ass, 1995 song to try and make it cool. My hats off to you.

    2:45 mark going around the house/out building, look like he was about to turn into the front door.:laugh:

    The segway thing was sweet. I saw something similar one of the years we went to PPIHC and they had the falken drift team do a pre-lunch drift show.

    So you think he has a bit of seat time???:laugh::laugh:

    I read alittle blurb about this and apparently the video was shot on his fourth attempt at the course. Not to bad for try # 4.

    Ok now who is going to buy a MNSubaru abandoned airfield so we can all try this?

    I like the fact that he is melting 285 width tires. That makes me re-think my turbo selection.

    The 180 deg turn at the 3 minute mark, right? Yeah, I was most impressed by that move right there. If only I could handle the pin turns in rallyx like that.

    I just watched this video again....and realized it's most definitely not all in one run. watch the cameras stuck to the outside of the car. they change at least 5 times. pretty much every time there's an impressive move, there's a different camera setup.


    and judging from the amount of rubber on the road, looks like he didn't exactly get it his first try.






    still pretty sweet, and even if it took him a few tries, some insanely impressive driving.

    I now believe that the Top Gear guys only have the 2nd best job on the planet. Oh, to have an unlimited budget and time to go out and play.
