Talking New respect for a FORD video

This reminds me of my former daily commute along the 403/401 in GTA, or Greater Toronto Area. The Beltway in Washington, DC is not quite as bad. I am not a tuner guy at all, but you have to say this guy can work a wheel and throttle.

I think I would have a bit more than pee.


Let's see him do that in Jay Leno's 4200lbs, 1000hp, RWD 66' Toro.

Wonder how much damage he did practicing to be that good
Even for the circle-work around the guy on the 2 wheeler there was more rubber on the road than revolutions done.
Great driving and Ford or not, a great little vehicle.
