Okay, so it was for a promo, but still I would pay to see a race on the racing surface in this video.

Cool promo. Did you notice the left front off the ground (a couple of times) when the car pulled into the driveway at Circuit of the Americas? Not much suspension travel on those things. The shot of the car negotiating the lefthand hairpin reminded me of the Chili Bowl, with the left front on the berm. Thanks for the post.

I feel I must file a protest....Open Wheel car, Dirt Track in America, obviously not running a Hoosier or Goodyear spec tire...hows the track supposed to make any tire deal money if this car is running Pirellis

DC would have made better time if he had the "Full wet's" on....They're kinda like the old nobby tires of yesteryear!

If its not computer generated. My compliments to the Grader operator for making a half inch clearance car be able to run on said surface.

If the car can run that well on dirt, perhaps Team Red Bull should consider entering the car in the open wheel class at the Pike's Peak Hill Climb, with Bryan Clauson at the helm.

You can tell that they're using camera tricks and editing to capture the feeling of speed when the car is on the dirt. I wish they had just used an out of date car, and just let it hang loose. Let's see an F-1 car get crossed up on the dirt! That'd be rad!
Overall though it was a very cool promo...

speaking of tires and promotions I like the one where a big ole black caddie I think it is, is drifting on the salt flats. two old folks get out to switch places, as they cross each other the granny slaps him on the ass and says nice job old man, now let me show you how its done. a classic
