Came across this video yesterday.

Apart from concentrating on "road rage" it's nice to see a good stick driving skill with a variety of techniques. A little over the top but nicely done!

And that's why we drive stick

Wears safety items like helmet and gloves. Wears shorts and T-shirt. Boss.

I guess it goes with what he is wearing.

Yeah, that thing aint got no AC in there, he doesnt wanna get hot... Cool cell phone holder though.

Wonder how he's modded it. My CRXsi wouldn't be getting round the ring that fast and wasn't exactly reassuringly stable at top speed.

He did rev match on downshift, he even double clutch rev match going down to 3rd, despite the ending, this is some very impressive driving

To me it looks like his toe and whole foot for that matter is coming off the brake and on gas on downshift. No matter, interesting driving.

+1

the guy did some heel-toe double clutch downshifts in a pretty impressive fashion

There was one well-known video back in the days showing this technique. as long as you don't use more time downshifting vs the time it takes you to complete your braking, properly done double-clutching could result in a faster downshift while bypassing the synchros. Double-clutching is smoother and is the proper way to do 5-2 or 4-2 downshifts at high speed (provided you are within the rev limit of the 2nd gear). It is not required on modern cars ,however, but it's a good technique to know.

He acted like an irresponsible dipshit toward the end. Great driving but the bitch needs to calm down. Ain't racing for a podium finish.

Bikers are getting in the way rather quickly at the Nordschleife even with moderate sporty cars like this CRX. I know from experience.

Looking at the speedometer this car isn't tuned or I'm spoiled by the speeds my car can do I guess.

And I see torquesteer, nuff said

Like LM winner and fellow Dutchman Peter Kox said: If your brakes are powerful enough you don't need to brake on the engine/heel& toe...
And this is a fwd car wih less torque than my windscreenwipermotor for God's sake. LOL.

A stock US CRX si would maybe reach 120 mph going down hill with a big tail wind, but this guy hit 127 so he's either modded or maybe he's driving a Del Sol which was still a CRX in Europe and had the most powerful engine.

[Chihuahua]

Awesome and inspiring video. Makes me want to buy a CRX and stuff a B16A in it.

[majin ssj eric]

Man that little Honda engine was screaming the whole time!
