Kind of a waste, but did you notice there was only one skid mark. Looks like he might have had a right rear tire go flat.

Old video ... been around the high performance boards a bit.

There is some discussion that it was all staged ... for a movie

Camera is too perfectly placed. Look at the skidmarks ... thats one massive understeer.

Drove one of those last night and have to say that would be an easy thing to do if you're not careful. Those things are gorgeous, but brutes beyond belief.

From what I have seen of Viper drivers at the track, that is par for the course.
