    Wild Ride in San Francisco!
    652 hpFord. It's a Ford promo driven by one of the best drivers ever for this type of racing. I can't imagine what it cost for this commercial when you see how much of the city was shut down for this, all the cameras and the staging. Wow - fun to watch, however.

    What's the guess. One, two or three million for that? I hated SF on it's best day. That would have been an absolute nightmare that day. Took me 20 years to get back out of Cali and don't miss it one darn bit!

    Thanks for the link, very skilled driver in his style of driving. Drifting always seemed like what the guys who would never win a race did when it started, but it has come a long way and the skill set needed for the fine level of balancing brake/steer/throttle is unreal. Hard on a car, but some fun to watch.
