Holy Crap! Nothing like lots of runoff room! Wonder how far they raised it up to handle the roads or lack thereof. Thanks for posting it Danny!

Great stuff ... What was the red light for on the dash, I would have assumed shift points but didn't seem to correlate to anything. Oil pressure? Guy driving must still be seeing little red lights though.

What was the angled bar he pulled on occasionally just above the shifter?

Probably a retro-fitted E Brake so he could slide the car.

Not as impressive as it looks - if you pay attention, you'll see he isn't going as fast as it looks like. Mostly 1st and 2nd gear in the tight stuff, 3rd in the long straights. PLus, that is very short gearing so I would guess he never tops 100mph. The trick? The camera is using a somewhat fisheye'd lens.

Still impressive, but not as "insane" as it might first appear.
