Incredible Driving!

Hmmm, turns out the guy who posted the video claims to be driver. His name is Pascal Pandelaar. He was driving a 1965 Porsche 911 on 'classic' Dunlop tires.

Tires explain it all. Pressures, bar, etc won't make a difference on those things.

Ever seen the NASCAR stock cars during the bias-ply days? Drifting competitions I tell you!!!

So what are 'classic' tires?

They are tires built to the specifications of whatever the year they are representing. So a '65 "classic" tire is constructed in the exact same way as the actual 1965 tire was. They are typically hard as rocks with little grip compared to a modern radial.

If that car in the video was running on a modern radial racing tire there's no way he'd be sliding as much as he was.
