That video was awesome!
I was driving on a doughnut today to get to the tire shop--had a ghastly puncture and needed new tires anyway (side note: 4 new Bridgestone Ecopias!)... I guess I should have tried to floor it in the corners. By the logic of this video, I could have increased my horsepower by a good bit.
Maybe that extra horsepower would offset my Ecomodder decal and put me back where I was before I added it?
