"rotates the back like a fiesta"...

Why did Andy tune to 450 for the drive? Scared to have it spin out of control? Traction?

Oh and wow...a 2005 TL Type S! That's gotta be a 1 of 1!

I'd be worried too if I gave my FWD 600hp+ car to someone who's never driven it before around a track

I'm guessing that the ecu was receiving a bad signal from one of the sensors, sending a code to the eco and the car into safe mode by cutting ignition and/or boost. Cycling the key would clear the code allowing the car to stop running in safe mode. I'm just guessing. I've only been around a few boosted cars. Non of them were TLs.
