Onboard footage. Apparently he spun out but still won his class:

Spin at 5:56. Looks like he was trying to get a little rotation on a tight hairpin and the rear kept going (despite his quick reflexes to save it). Good run though and congrats to Dai and Evasive!

what wheels are on the car? can't seem to find build info anywhere

I believe they're custom Titan 7 TS-5 wheels. One of his sponsors. Runs these wheels on both the hillclimb car and his drift car

So all in all a car that looks vaguely like the 86 it started out as but is about as far from being an 86 as a this is from being a "Pinto".

I'll bet they moved the gas tank on this particular Pinto. :confused0068:

The probability of it getting rear-ended is pretty remote anyway.

Remember reading something similar about the Ford Focus WRC car. It looked just like the road version but the only parts it shared with it were the door cards (!)

Ship of Theseus

Indeed! (I may or may not have had to google that)

Full run!! Crazy! Beautiful!
