    Pretty cool
    Ive done some power slider, but didnt think there was enough torque for drifting. Im impressed since he isn't bouncing off the rev limiter, (which i hate when people do. so bad for the car.)

    What most people don't realize, and is a well kept secret, is that when the front headlights are up, the suspension retunes itself for drifting, and when down it is turned for high power corner exits. All at the turn of a stalk.

    They also don't realize that when having the left foot on the brake (beginning of the clip) to lock up the front wheels while doing this F's up (and the F is not for the F355) the motor mounts and handful of other things on the car.

    I think Most of us agree that the car is not well suited mechanically for this type of stuff.

    Kinda like drag racing without a rolling start.

    The 355 feels better planted.

    Get a Maranello if you want to be sideways :)
