I didn't expect Scion to make a somewhat technical video like this. I figured they'd just say, "It makes you drift like Ken Gushi, yo!"

good video. it's too bad they couldn't show the internals of the LSD to show exactly what is going on there... but then again, it might just confuse people more.

These videos looked like the ones shown during the early demos of FR-S, presented by the Scion regional representatives. Now they finally uploaded it to Youtube.
