ok, two options:
- the driver is one hell of an amateur
- or maybe it's just not a good idea to put a turbo in a car like that
(i'm thinking the second)

the car is too light to transfer that amount of power to the tires. But saying the torque per weight distribution must be great.

i think he just got way over excited. at the beginning there, he was in a too low a gear to be seriously driving that car.
he's thinking "high rpm, higher speed"
plus it sounds like he's peaking way early for a turbo.
he's just bringing it up to redline "cause its cool"

Yeah, I think it's a little too much power for a car that light. I'd say the Lotus Exige 240R is the perfect example of the right amount of power. 243 hp, 174 lb-ft, 0-60 under 4 sec.
It's got a great sound to it though. I'll give it that.

as a driver of a super turbo lag 944 turbo It's hilarious to see him turn so sharp with his foot to the floor not expecting boost to kick in and send him spinning  , thats an insane car must be a handful and a half
