I honestly think that guy is a moron who got lucky. The wheelstand was cool, and if it had gone straight I would have been all for him staying in it, but when you drift into the GRASS that lines the track (which is just unbelievable that they would leave grass on a racetrack) it's time to get out of the gas. That retarded mentality of "never lift" is a sure fire way to ruin, at the very least, all of the stuff you pay a ton of money for.
That moron stayed in the throttle when half of his car was on grass, and it nearly cost him his car as well as the clean oldsmobile in the other lane. No race win in the world is worth wrecking your car AND someone else's.
