Now that's "how you supposed drive"! Steer it with the throttle. I guess there's something to be said for having those Blizack tires?
Very cool, thanks Dom! ![]()

Looks like my trip back from Van Horn Texas in the snow where I did a white knuckle Doughnut with the Z on my ride home lol.
Seriously he has talent and owners faith in his driving abilities

Joe, I was thinking the same thing. The only difference was he was on the road by himself.

That's how they were driven prior to wings being implemented! Up until then they powered into turns and controlled drift with throttle. Just like the kids have learned to do today with their drifting!! An old driving technique reborn!

This should be required for drivers up here. I learned a lot of driving dynamics in the Winter and on loose gravel roads. Helps you learn that it doesnt help to brake hard when you get into trouble.
