Cool. I used to drive my radio control car like that. IT looked like a competition. I think the car must have some special setup for that kind of driving.

Looks like maybe a Caterham Super 7, or something similar.

I used to do that when i lived in the UK. Its great fun. Thats what we call autotesting in England. Thats also why we call it a hand brake and not a parking brake too

Nice car control

That car must have a dog-box transmission. There is not way a normal trans with synchros could do all that non-sense.
