Well, thats 6 minutes of my life I wont get back.. the video did nothing to change my mind about this thing. I know nothing of the other two cars nor do we know anything about the guys driving them, and since both cars are from the same manufacturer, who do we know that the drivers werent sandbagging it?
Last thing I need is to have to buy 6 tires instead of 4 when they wear out. Also, with the additional weight and friction, I would think you would need to have a lot more power to achieve the same performance level.. I guess its a nice engineering exercise.
