Sorry about that... I am old (87) and was too busy shifting, filming and keeping the car going straight - all on an deserted landing strip while obeying all the traffic rules :)
@fast07st In that case your excused. What is your RPM at 55 & 70 mph? I'm thinking about buying one of these 2.3 models. The first one I had (2.0 ztec) was nothing but trouble, I think it had a hard life before I bought it.
No... there's nothing that would suggest "terrible at driving" in the video.
What you see is the wheels really spinning and the traction control - controling the spin. It allows for some spin, but won't let the wheels keep on spinning.
The traction control works as it should especially in loose track/wet/snowing conditions. If you want to spin the wheels... then I just turn it off!
Its sad when people get old they drive around with their signals on annoying everyone else. I had to stop the vid.

This is an american car. The only difference here is a stupid piece of plastic with the speed on it.

This is not a 0-60 speed test. This is a comparasion btw a low traction situation w/ trac control on/off !!!!!!

at first I thought you were terrible at driving...but I guess the traction control on these cars is very intrusive?
