In the end, there are those who buy their cars for themselves and those who really buy their cars for others.

Lemme guess.... Another wannabe prodigy driver who fancies himself the next Ken Block or Aryton Senna and doesn't need traction control....

I'm going to admit my ignorance here. I get problems in a corner. Too much throttle coming out of a turn and it's oversteer. Ditto for a downshift or hard throttle lift in the turn when pushing the limit.

Straight line?? When the back end starts to wiggle isn't the first reaction to get off the throttle and counter steer? How the hell do you let straight line acceleration get to this point? Yes, at 70 mph maybe it happens so fast you can't correct, but it didn't seem he was going anywhere near that.

Am I missing something or do these people simply put both feet on the throttle and yell "Yee-Haw?"

Isn’t it crazy that anyone can go buy a 700+ hp car and they think that they are great drivers? Hell, my car was only 435 rated when I bought it and that is plenty to put oneself into embarrassing and expensive situations.

As far as the nannies? I prefer to shut them off. Well, ya can’t actually shut them all of without pulling the dyno plug, but my thinking is that they actually cause many of these Mustang Fail videos that we see. Of course, it then requires some driving ability to control the car and if you are deficient there you can still become the star in a Mustang Fail video. I am not saying that I could have even laced up Ken Block’s (RIP) shoes or Aryton Senna’s, but I have a pretty good idea of what my driving skill limitations are. AND, I will be seeking more instruction in the future because like many other things training should never stop.

Saw this video a while back and had the exact same thought.

That said, my dad used to do this same thing with me in the car. We just did it in the country without YouTube. So I don't have any room to judge lol.

Probably the bottle of coke fell on the floor jamming the has pedal at least wheels and suspension took all the impact likely just folding up under the car since he had fwd momentum when impacting curb.

He probably treats the car like glass 99% of the time and this is the first time he spun a tire. You have to react completely the wrong way to get a car so out of control in a straight line.

Yea, some cars should require training before they are allowed to drive the car. I think the Demon required training.
