It's not so much I couldnt or wouldnt but the wear and tear on the car is enormous. Apparently they went through 4 sets of tires for this video. I dont think doing this with our cars would necessarily be the smartest thing. This is very impressive. Talk about car control. Enjoy.

Very impressive. But of course with a race prepped car. Plus if it took 4 sets of tires to do that video, I consider that cheating to make it look like a single non-stop run.
Has anyone seen the "Mr. Drifter" videos? Here is a BMW Performance Center instructor in a bone stock M5: http://hk.youtube.com/watch?v=7jIUgOx1uiQ. There's no "acrobatics" but still incredible skill. Be sure to watch it thru the end for the cost of doing such driving.
