Actually myself and some of my friends do solo2 events...which was what he was running. His suspension isn't properly setup first off...second he's trying to power out of the turns like he's the dukes of hazard or something. He's entering at full throttle, letting off for a split second, then hammering again trying to slide it out through the turn. There's way too much hp in that car to slide through like he wants to. It also looks like at times he just freezes up, or overcorrects way too much. He's also not shooting the apex's of the turns properly either, and then jerks the wheel around to try and get back on track. Driving school would benefit him greatly. :P

we dont have any autox courses around my town. and people get mad when i fly threw the streets at 4 in the morning with loud exhaust. but i bet a lot of stock cars could do better then that. maybe not as fun as that car but hey at least hes trying it out on a nice car and setup and probilby will ruin it soon.

This video has been posted on grassrootsmotorsports's forum and I even posted it on the RR/AX forum of the corral. He can't drive for one thing and I'd hazard a guess that the rear suspension has some straightline drag race control arms in it. Mustangs (as anyone that autocrosses one) have the worst of car control traits, they can go from heavy understeer to massive power on oversteer or even just snap oversteer if the car feels like it. However, the biggest issue is the driver needs a smack upside his head. He needs to learn a bit of finesse, not every driving
situation demands WFO.
