Now if he could do it without so much practice or at least all in one seamless shot, that would be something else.

Doing the same thing myself or at least try, for the shear fun, now that's a drive (pun intended). "Looked at it, declared war and went to find my throwing wrenches."

Altho he practiced each section alone, before he run. During the full run when he messed up.... He started again from the begining, until he finished the run. Which raises him on a very narrow pedistol amongs great drivers.. Cause no one could possbly exacute those stunts with out practice. 11.45@125, stock bottom end 6bolt 2g head. 272 hks cams.

If he actually does do it all in one seamless thing, then that's mighty impressive. 1998 Eclipse GSX Spyder 11.5@124 AWD Talons: 1992, 1993, 1997, 1998 Team Big Turbo PHP: 2

Used to show it all around ontario. Took 2nd prize about a half dozen times. Cool thing about it, swapped the 289ci for a 302ci and it had a 4 to the floor. Had I known this cars potential.. Awesome video IMO. Although he has done better in the past. (Is what I think and what I think Stephan was trying to say lol) '99 GSX GT35R '03 CBR 600RR
