Probably, but I didn't see it, so no doubt others didn't either

Can't see the vid at work but is it the *really old * one from Donny? If so then it's a great vid, I must have seen it at least 50 times

looks like he's deliberately drifting it - keeping the throttle open whilst on the front brake to get the rear spinning up and drifting sideways on the way into corners. I dunno if this is just wet cornering technique or if its done to gauge how much traction he'll have on the way out.
