It's clearly a fake video, was this on CNN? everyone knows an 86 doesn't have enough torque to break the rear end loose, even in the wet.

At 350whp, 400+ engine HP Engine work should be done, Clutch, Trandmission is on the edge.

Clearly the only explanation to this video is 2 friends decided to swap cars, and the BRZ owner was in the Mustang, and the Mustang owner was driving the BRZ.

I am. Two summers ago we both even traded cars for a an hour to try them out. Neither crashed.


Your theory may still be invalid though since there was a perfectly good crowd that they drove past before hitting the pole. No self respecting Mustang driver would pass up a crowd.
