Valid for sure...maybe this proves we can all skip our 30k service like all of those poor souls in the "rock solid" import crowd do.

Ernesto, I knew that one would come up...

I think the purpose of the 456-drive was to drive it hard until something broke down. Water hose in this case. I think it's done at Ferrari.

I also like the formation of a nice little pool of something under the engine of that rice rocket.

My two favorite parts of that video are the guy in tshirt and shorts getting there first (there are 4 safety crew guys in firesuits) and how none of them feels the need to use the fire extinguishers.

Quality. :-)
