Was that one of our scandinavian friends? Loads of opposite lock!! Driving more like a rally driver than a racer and making phone calls too!

I skipped to 7:18 or so, quite possibly one of the worst balanced videos I've ever seen (brightness/contrast, interior/road)

edge of the seat viewing, awesome!
driving into the sun, maybe that was an advantage not being able to see those walls with all that oversteer going on lol

He's not a Finn. Swedish perhaps?

what comes to rally, it's good to be a Finn. Last weekends WRC in Norway: 1. Mikko Hirvonen 2. Marcus Grönholm, both from Finland. Where were Citroens Loeb & Sordo..... I suppose they just can't drive if there is snow

Nice. I've recently been trying to out do myself with new lap records in the R8 and other race cars in GT4.

I don't think it's a turbo S, though -- it doesn't have air bags -- which I *believe* were world wide standard on all turbo Ss
