Yes, those cars have more play in their steering system. That guy is driving at the limit of that car. His reaction/reflex is just awesome and like second nature to him to keep the car on the pavement at that speed. You should see the outside video of that from a helicopter, very smooth and the car drifts a bit on corners from being pushed really hard.

FYI - the car in the vid is not a 930. It's a standard 911 chassis with a RUF modifications and vin. The rear flair was widened about 1" to accomodate slightly larger tires. Front fenders are stock.
