Fun!

Not much different than beating them at the track, which is my favorite pass time.

In my opinion theres a big difference between running your car down a dragstrip (which I very much condone) and sliding a muscle car sideways in every direction with ZERO respect to the car.

You condone drag racing? Coming from a guy that builds race engines? lol

From what I see in the video he's actually pretty smooth with the car, low rpm, and not much abuse other than the tires. I'm much harder on the cars at the dragstrip. But then again, I hear similar comments from people that think I'm crazy for daily driving our RS Z. I don't own these things to stare at them in the garage.
