WOW

that car looked fast as far as acceleration goes..

my cousin can parallel park real good. he lives in st. louis city, and does it all the time. he parks a wagon only using the side mirrors, and does it fast as fuck too.

Its nothing special IMO. Give me that roadster thing on that skidpad and I'll be able to do most of the sick stuff that he does within a couple weeks. The only thing thats hard is going backwards and doing a 180 forwards at that speed.

i know fuck all about cars, but it looks like a kit car to me.

You want one of these: http://www.arielmotor.co.uk

Does 0-60mph in 2.9 seconds (see Top Gear for a video)

This is Jeremy Clarkson at some stupid mph: http://img70.exs.cx/my.php?loc=img70&image=3215nj.jpg rofl.

He has a point though. That car drives nothing like a regular car.

The challenge was to deliver a good time and choreography. Doing the individual slides and turns is nothing much with that kind of car.
I'm not saying I could do it right now, but IMO pretty much everybody who has a driver's license could learn it within a reasonable amount of time with that kind of car.

you're missing the whole point of why we thought his comment was funny.
