It does look fun, but I think if I tried to drive like that I would crash on the first turn.

I can't count how many times I would have crashed. I've seen him before and Wow, he can drive.

Just one question though, How do you do a 4 wheel burnout without moving?

He had a white teather on the back of the car. When he hit the remote, the teather unhooked and the car took off.

I'd rather have the left and right side turn different directions.

Did anyone else catch the white "OJ" Bronco being followed by the LAPD cars?

His videos are fun to watch and he does have amazing car control. I always wonder how he would do on a real race track against real race car drivers? Did he do some rally races? Anyone know how he did, was he competitive?

Anyone with that kind of car control would be superlative behind the wheel in racing.

I know the skills don't fully transfer, but there are a few drivers that can really hang it out properly, and were incredibly successful rally drivers. Tanner Foust for example, who has both rally and drift championships under his belt.

Also the OJ reference was nicely done.
