Anyone have this on video?

I have the pictures. It was his second time at the track. Last weekend he was there and got kicked out cause he had no roll cage. He told another guy that he lost focus before he even went down the track and then forgot to let off and just decided to hang on. He went through the fence and the hay bales, then turned around and drove up to the time slip booth. He is fine, but he said that the car has 10k in damage. He acted like it was no big deal. Eaither way he is a dumba$$. Onto the pictures

Actually, launch aside, AWD can be really interesting in higher HP cases. I drove the shop car of the car that did all my tuning/work on my STi and it's kind of interesting what happens sometimes. I'm not sure about the Porsche, but the STi needs the DCCD out of Auto mode, otherwise it gets really confused with wheelspin at those speeds/power levels.

I only put a hair over 400 to the tire and ended up wanting an aftermarket DCCD controller just to have more flexibility on the cars behavior.

Yup. When my old set up had it's good tune. I had four people in the car, on the highway, on r-compound tires, and broke all four loose going WOT. Here is some in car footage with four people at the begining of tuning (about 3 hours before the highway pull).
YouTube - tuning
This new set up should be interesting.

That thing should have anywhere between 16 and 20 pistons to stop it. He had to be moving to not decide that the brakes were an option.

if you can buy that car and build it to over 1000hp, i doubt another 10k is a big worry.
