hes actually a damn good driver but probably just slipped. downhill racing is pretty hard and i bet all those mountain racers probably got into an accident like that every now and then. guess hes a clown, but then again so are like hundreds of guys and girls in japan. theyre into that crazy stuff..

I wouldn’t say that.
I wasn’t impressed by what I saw up until the wreck.
And the chase car took the corners better and nearly ran over him several times.

That's what playing too much GT3 does to you, you start thinking you're Michael Schumacher. Oh well, one less idiot on the road.

He didn't seem to be going fast enough to have his ass-end swing out like that on multiple occasions....Wonder what kind of tires he had on that thing?

you don't have to be going terribly fast to swing the ass of a Supra out like that.... and if you happen to do it in just the wrong way, you can lose control - and the car can whip back and forth like it did in the vid.... don't ask me how I know

True, I've had some scary moments in some powerful cars myself....But luckily nothing like that

i have a 97 supra turbo and when it had new proxies and new bridgestones on the back the rear end would still swing away without a problem...it took a long time to get used to it.
