Takes talent to control a power and heavy car like that. That was awsome. That cant be stock that must be making 400-500hp

That was cool. The best part is that it looked soooo easy and the car was very willing to fry the treads. The engine noise when you punched it was awesome. The car was on-song....

Great vid mate

Were there any other muscle cars there?
