I love all those who say he's not pushing it. He's sideways in a corner or two and he's running over 170 on bias ply tires. That guy is driving that car and doing a good job with it. This is proof you don't need rev match on new cars, you do it yourself.

I was at this event in a newly completed A Production car. It was a blue 1969 Corvette with a 350 (running a rev limit for first miles). It was running all 70's era tech, per the rules. This car looks like a monster by comparison, making probably double the power but...I had a great time none the less. I have a video of my Corvette and the Corvette dedication if you click under my user name and look at the videos. That was a great weekend and re-dedication of the Corvette bridge. This car in this vid is a monster though...I remember watching it.

At first I was thinking he was a little slow getting into it coming out of the turns, but now knowing he was using vintage tires it's best not to overheat them by spinning unnecessarily. Once they get hot they start to get greasy and spinning out is easy.
