Cool video. I know those guys scared the heck out of the people coming down the hill. If we had hills like that here. There would be too many drivers on it to do that in the daytime anyhow, but we can dream.

Makes me want to up and jump a flight to Japan. Just one more proof positive that the Rotory is an awesome weapon mated to the right platform. Awesome vid. How can I get that to download?

Yeah, I wish we could do things like that over here. Cops would be on us in a heartbreak slamming us with so many tickets we'd have to sell our cars just to pay them off and on top of that, we'd probably lose our license for 10 years. Plus, at least here in VA, we don't have these beautiful three-lane, curvy, perfectly smooth roads. Don't get me wrong, I love the roads around here, but I get about a foot or two to maneuver with and the curves are unconventional with at least three different radiuses. Not to mention all the damn potholes...

Yeah, everything's perfect, blah blah blah...

You know what guys? I like the video, but I don't like the way those guys drift. I mean, I would prefer grip driving than drifting with an ebrake all the way through the corner enterance. Even if the car slides longer compared to another one that drifts without the ebrake, it isn't just as attractive. But that's just only my opinion, please don't reply to that post and don't flame me. Ok?

Right, which is why the camera angle never changes on the on-board camera car...it's pretty obvious when they repeat the same turn towards the end.

They do use the ebrake, but not always in a standard fasion though. If you watch it looks like hes starting it in a straight line, and then turns in. Watch youll see what i mean, hes still going straight and a -lot- of smoke is comming from his back tires, then he turns in, not due to hard braking i promise you that

Added: I should proof-read what i type for typos...
