"He says he's going to be number one!"
3000Nm? :wtc: If my maths aren't off (or the calculator for that matter), that final dyno run is showing the car putting out something like 2200lb-ft of torque. How is that even remotely possible?

Absolute power, corrupting absolutely. That M5 that you posted earlier, trying to drift through time and space - well, actually, I think he was trying to drive straight, but anyhow...

gently caress the BMW, let's see more of that RS200!

And just because you can never have enough GroupB: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2VWQPypraE Turn up your speakers and enjoy. No RS200s, but there is a bonus shot of the GpB Celica, which doesn't usually get seen in most compilations. It does look and sound a little tame, in comparison.

"He says he's going to be number one!"
^^ I think I might have already posted that one, but it's worth seeing the "I'm going for number one," segment, at the very least, when the BMW makes the first pass by diving inside the Vauxhall. It's kind of hard to believe that the cars would all be that evenly matched without having them all running on some spec chassis, especially when you take into account that some were running FWD (Alfa) while others were RWD (BMW).

This happened to me.

I was driving to work and some loving human being smashed into the back of my stationary Lantra. I saw in my rear view mirror his breaks lock up, and when he hit me he was still going a far too loving fast when he hit me. This brings it back.
I was too shocked at the time to react like this (and besides it was my daily driver Hyundai, not an FD)
My workmate got whiplash. I was fine and went to work that day.

MOTHERFUCKER



Doesn't look much but the chassis was bent and the car was a write off. Shame it was a fantastic car while I had it. Note the get well band-aid.

Ah see, I prefer to be the nice, amicable guy who just wants your insurance information, and then later on I go to the best body-shop in town and completely butt-gently caress you 6 ways from Sunday on the repair costs to get my car back into the condition it was in before you re-arranged it.

Getting lovely and pissy at the scene is just another way they can feel vindicated in trying to screw you over. I mean I can understand his anger at the kid being stupid but screaming at someone isn't going to get your car back to normal.

I would actually watch drifting if it wasn't for irritating announcers and how it seems to (I'm generalizing) revolve around LOLSTREETRACERS culture.
The irritating announcers transcend languages and countries too.

Still, drifting is pretty much loving amazing to watch, and I really appreciate the skill involved.
