Wrong guy to preach that to!
There are some great FWD cars out there.
What the video shows is lacking, is that there are people that know how to drive them!!!!!

Again, how is the driver?
The car is the fixed factor. It is the driver that is the variable.

I really have to ask, and I promise I'm not being a **** here - How the fuck are you online so much? You have posts from 2AM to 7AM, and then fro like 10AM to 4PM non-stop. What do you do?

To OP: Don't sweat Tcoat, he has to comment on literally everything ever. Thanks for sharing a funny\sad Nurburgring video with us.

Not being a prick to be curious and since you were not one I will answer! I have been on vacation for the last two weeks and that accounts for the late nights. When at work I spend most of my day stuck at a desk and since I am very good at my job I have some spare time. It is winter so I have nothing better to do and my computer is right beside me which makes things too easy.
The OP and I have actually had some good discussions in the past so he is well aware of my ummmm ...habits. The only reason I commented on his posting of the video is the fact that there are several 1000s of users registered on here and if each one posts a video that they find amusing we will be swamped.
As far as commenting on "everything", if you pay close attention you will notice that I do not comment in the tech threads unless I have something of actual value to contribute, I will not comment on other threads unless the subject is totally ridicules or resolved and the vast majority of my superfluous comments are intended as jokes.
Some people have no sense of humour and/or are so angry inside themselves that they read everything as an insult regardless of the context in which it is presented. I can not help those people but the others that "get it" seem to enjoy themselves.

The Video looks like it demonstrates a slippery spot with loss of traction. It's easy to tell because a couple of the cars ended up sliding after losing grip

Well if you are an experienced manufacturing engineer, worked in the automotive sector, legally able to work in Canada and don't mind living in/near Windsor I could probably hire you on the spot!
