Very nice. I remember a 600 in Massachusetts back in the day. It wasn't plagued with rust either (somehow!)

wayyyyyyyy more fun if he was drifting instead of sliding
look, mostly uses 2nd gear to slide
of course, car is fast, push the throttle at 2nd even TL would slide at high speed
and in this case no need to use hand brake
hand brake is drift
after he got to 3rd gear, instead of taking it back to 2nd, he should use hand brake with that speed, not slowing with 2nd and pushing the throttle
hand brake up and down with light throttle would adjust the drift
have to know the control
plus he thinks he is in F1, locking his arms
gotta be gentle with the steering while drifting

What's up with all of the hash-tags? Was this info copied from Twitter or something? 
Cool story nonetheless.

0-178mph in around 19 sec.
btw FWIW.. my friend's supercharged '97 Viper GTS did 0-200mph in 20 sec... in 1999. I don't know, whenever I see videos like this I just can't help but compare to that.

also according to the note in this post, Yums was the one who posted Astro's note in the first thread - which makes complete sense - because trev is more like a bot than like a person - he just posts videos - he doesn't post words or any kind of analysis or anything.

Flood causes cars to stop except one
Flood causes cars to stop except one, the Honda Accord driver chose to drive through and in the process crashes into a tree.
