The Viper doesn't have ABS? It looks like he just completely locked up the wheels.

Actually maybe not looking at it again. Must have been scary as hell though for the guy. Luckily he walked away.

That bitch screaming was annoying though.

early models didn't, however ABS wouldn't of helped him and probably would of put him in a shittier position, would of taken longer to slow down and he was already on the dirt
