Yeah, basically what IOwnCalculus said. The Patron Ferraris are just that, loud and piercing. They are awesome. The new Evora that was running sounded similar to them, and that was pretty rad too.

It's too bad the Aston Martin prototype from last year was phased out, that took it to another level.

Just before the T5 braking zone is probably the best place to experience the rush after a caution. Guess who forgot any sort of ear protection...

It sure looks like it gets traction and helps pull the car from the dirt. It's rotating backwards, slows, begins to rotate forward, then accelerates and throws all the dirt up as it pulls forward.

The tire isn't rotating when the car position is sideways compared to the directional vector of the car. No force to accelerate/decelerate the tire in correlation to its desired rotational direction. Once the tire lines up with the vector the car is traveling on it speeds up to match the velocity of the car. Frictional forces cause the tire to accelerate to match the car's velocity, not an AWD driveline.

Didn't think this would be so hard to understand.

I take back anything I said that may have been interpreted as being derogatory of this mustang, because holy hell it sounds good.
