Well made video. It shows RCF's oversteering behavior very well in high G turns.

Some fun moments in that drive. What mode was he predominantly in?

Is that amount of tire squeal normal in high speed gradual turns on the on ramps? That surprised me - perhaps the OEM rubber needs replacing or upgrading?

And I’m assuming that’s stock exhaust?

Yeah, it has stock exhaust. It was all engine noise. My RCF has noise coming from the back as well. He was showing the playful nature of the car. He was pushing it pretty hard through long turns peaking at almost 70 - 73 mph a few times in 3rd gear and the sharp throttle response adding power to the rear cause some powersliding. The rear would start oversteering a few times and then he was controlling it through the throttle. They are sticky tires, but he was pushing it hard.

He was using normal mode and D mode for much of the driving.. A few times he switched to sport+ mode and manual mode when he using the paddle shifters.
