Nice movie of a french Evo V doing a lot of tailsliding and a warning at the end for the people who take it to far :0


Lancerevo File is about 3Mb.

Apologies if it's been seen before.

Thumbs down

It really comes as no suprise!!! I have no objection to peeps sliding about at the track but he/she was doing it with other track users in close proximity! What a pratt - and yet, 'your not going to hurt anyone on a track' copyright Scoobynet 2002

Ever think she was lifting off on purpose? You don't go round corners like that unless you have some clue about what your doing!

I think it was down to a tyre blowing - look carefully.

Figured you might have been taking the **** ice

Nope, the car spun a lot more when I have fuel surge! Is this one still not worn a little thin yet. I'm tempted to make up a bullsh1t story about something else just so you'll have new material

Looks like the driver was having fun......right until he totalled it
