Great post Jabba!

That commy driver in the first clip can drive! Also, the guy in the orange torry was doing a hell of a job to reel in a clubman, they are damn quick little cars. The clip of the XD gave me flashbacks to when I crashed the XR6.

For good driving, I dont think there is better than the Pikes Peak hill climb of Ari Vatanen in the Peugeot..

Its called "climb Dance", , it is the best !

If you havent seen it, you should be able to find it without too much drama !

How can you honestly call the driver in the 1st clip a good driver? Wow he can smoke his tyres and get slightly sideways.

Dunno about you but high speed sideways action get's me excited. The first bend he hit full noise and didn't back off an inch whilst it was squirmimg. Then unloaded the bum under compression (prob not the plan) but again did not back off an inch, full song until the direction shift. It's one thing to do it on a track and one thing to do it at low speed, he did it whilst wringing the thing like a hookers g-string. I still say... can drive.

As for "slight sideway's", I think it was big sideways.... it wasn't a drift comp at 60k's an hour.

What! do you think you can you do better in your Red Fiesta....

Have a good look at that Video. That bloke is in a over powered, under gripped Commodore and he is wringing out everthing it has.... Yes he can drive and yes he is good at it

He appears to have a rally background. Those types of drivers are extremely hard on tyres in Targa Tasmania.

Some of the Motorkana videos on that site also showed some impressive driving.

Mate, It's one thing to spin the wheels and get a bit sideways. It's a complete and utter different ball game to be sideways and keep on the gas, smoking the tyres as you go, at speed.

That guy cannot only drive, he has cods the size of bowling balls doing it in in that car, on those roads..

Maybe you could show us a clip of the Zetec power sliding thru some corners, smoke billowing from the wheel arches..??

My point exactly. The guy does have balls but that doesn't mean hes a good driver. Guts and Skill are TOTALLY different.

Do you see pro drivers smoking up the tyres like that? No you don't becuase they know how to control the throttle and limit time wasting wheelspin. This guy can only mash the throttle.

And no, i don't have a clip on the zetec billowing smoke coz its not the way to drive fast.
