I could only watch it once. I am sick to my stomach. I missed a shift today though pulling out into traffic, 2nd to 3rd. I can happen. Worse when someone is video taping.

Did a little more research on that Swift... 193 WHP, and gutted everything but the drivers seat. The times are high because our track is 3550' above sea level, that's a 10.5% drop in hp compare to anyone at sea level.
