You can almost feel the torque in the video.

I believe this car is in the ballpark of 600 rwhp, maybe a little more.

That is awesome! Looks like you really have to be careful, a couple of times it looked close to breaking sideways or totally around. Could have been the camera angle, but he definitely lost grip on just about every acceleration. There is something very intimidating about a car that spins tire at 60 mph, but you have to be real careful driving it and not accidently doing it through a turn.
