I thought it was the Runoffs, but I don't think it is seeing how he was passing everything!!! Either way Mid-Ohio is awesome, I can't wait until April......

That was some kick-*** driving!

Must have been some type of open practice, because he would have won "the race".

Most likely. Let's not forget that GT cars (at least now, dunno about back in the 80s...) are tube frame cars with huge brakes, custom everything, etc. The only thing that's kept is the stock motor and a mold of the body. The motor is then highly modified of course.

And every honda GT car I've seen has been RWD.

OK, not only was the video totally awesome, but when I went to save it to my hard drive, I downloaded 12.96 mb in 3 SECONDS. 4.2 mb per second. I thought it was a mistake, but the video is there.

That would be because you saved the local cached copy of the file to another location on your disk. I downloaded it at an average of 265KB/sec and it still took 45 seconds.
