Yea because you were in the drivers seat.  Car wiggled a little when the tires bit.

I don't think it mattered that he wasn't in the drivers seat... he probably saw the other video of you sliding off into the grass while attempting the same manuever!  -Mark

Kind of like yourself.  Practice make perfect. If you don't leave the track well then you = not driving 10/10th's.

I've been "off" that track more times then anyone on the boards, granted I also have more completed laps around that place then everyone on this board combined. And you're right if you don't go off you're running the car to your limits.

Michael Schumacher would beg to differ! 
Nonetheless, that's one of the nicest FWD powerslides I've ever seen. And Todd is one of the best AutoX drivers I have watched with my own eyes. Too bad he isn't as smooth with te ladies!

My comment was never aimed at taking away anything from Todd's driving skills. Just watch that video and that's proof that he knows what he's doing, but when watching that video intially (keep in mind, I saw this video like a year ago), I had thought that the wheels were locking up and the car thus wiggled to the sides. Anywho, it's a kickarse clip and will go down in ceg video vault  .

Q 1: You got a Stazi bar?
Q 2: Do you remember how much fuel was in the tank?
-- 1999 SVT #220 --
In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.
