Pure, dumb luck!

The "amazing" driver was the other guy - he managed to keep his going in a straight line!

[patrickvr6]

Both feet in! Oh, wait...

[sticky euro]

Did everyone at the track, including the maintenance guy on the lawnmower, come to the driver's aid?

[1Point8TDan]

Newbies at the track should not disengage traction control...

[mtadd162]

Might of had an idea of what he was doing. He didnt hit the brakes until the end of the 360, least he knows you have a better chance of finessing the skinny pedal with a awd car. Still some luck in there...either way

HAHAHAHAHA I see what you did there

[surefooted]

Amazing car makes an amazing driver?

[MFactor]

Pretty sure that driver pee'd himself.

[Time for a GTI]

THE luckiest? Definitely other contenders

That track looks terrible.

I'm used to Rockingham or Vmax in Charlotte.

[seadoo2006]

That run was pure insanity ... good to see the video making rounds ... Tx2k12 was INSANE this year ...

We drove down from Ohio with a couple guys trailering a MKIV Supra and a Corvette ... we were constantly on the lookout for the Hennessy guys trying to scavenge some parts off the cars

[CK98Beeetle]

I watch that and think... AMAZING CAR! Driver had something going on, but still, that car is almost too good.


On a side note, not trying to derail thread, but any GT-R vids that were not so lucky?

I have been really wanting to pick up a Viper for the weekends and going into town but the shop is just over an hour away. A little too close for comfort.

There goes the "GTR drives itself" theory. This was in a straight line the car couldn't drive itself.

I think when the tail came out he became a passenger and got very lucky.

Edit, watched the video a few times. He does correct one way, then the other. If it was all skill he would have saved it from the spin all together.

1/2 luck 1/2 skill.

ZING!

V-Tec kicked in yo!

[PowerDubs]

I'm still trying to figure out how he lost it in the first place..

I'd like to start a movement that if you criticize a girl in a picture then you must post a picture of your wife. If you don't have a wife then you must post a picture of your girlfriend. In the case that your daughter is over 18 then she can be substituted for either your wife or your girlfriend but you can't post pictures of your girlfriend instead of your wife. Don't forget to blur the plates.

The same rule applies for cars that aren't low/fast/stanced/new/old enough.

I actually agree. That girl isnt' a ten, but based on the pictures of and posts of the average TCL'er over the years, I would say she is way out of 99% of this forums league.

I could understand if she was busted, but she's not too bad

[jmj]

She looks like she just shot up in a tanning booth. And no, I'm not posting pics of my wife.

[patrickvr6]

I found one.

Te be fair- she is girl next door material, but she is being posed like she is a hot bikini model.
If it was just a picture of the girl (and not is some "look at this hot babe" angle/composition)- I am sure dude would have no issue.
But when being posed like a hot bikini model for an "artistic" car shot, you become fair game for some criticism.

Why do people think spray tans look good?

Warranty is really only voided if the data shows you broke the car on a launch. The transmissions aren't fragile, the 09s had issues with first gear because the launches were so agressive with VDC off that they wheel hopped badly which will blow any gearbox. The transmissions are finicky though, and when stupid things like pressure sensors, or clutch seals break, instead of replacing the 50 dollar part, a whole new transmission gets installed
