Loved seeing him sliding the car UP Vermont street! Back in high school my (thrill-seeking) buddies and I would do hand-brake turns down Vermont, no video unfortunately.

It's a bunch of his best clips combined. Mastering that in one run would be golden but really it's gotta be damn near impossible. Look at all the tire marks on the floor from the practice runs. He is still a beast nonetheless, I wonder how they kept everyone out of those areas?? Had to be a weekend based on the financial district but damn... Not a thing in sight!!!

Lool x2 not even a pedestrian in sight! Never seen downtown look so much like a ghost town, even in 6AM there is a good amount of people. In for more info of the filming because I can't find any haha
