Thread: YouTube Mirage commercial with shots of fast cornering (& hand-brake turn advice!)

    Talking YouTube Mirage commercial with shots of fast cornering (& hand-brake turn advice!)

    At first I thought this was going to be another ordinary Mirage commercial (from Mitsubishi Malaysia).

    And, mostly, it is ordinary.

    But skip ahead to the 2:00 minute mark and we see a few shots of the driver throwing the car through some aggressive high speed curves. It's not quite sliding sideways, but you can definitely hear the tires screaming!



    The driver is of course Mitsu's spokesman, champion rally driver Hiroshi Masuoka (he gave us some fuel economy advice too). So the fast cornering shouldn't be too much of a surprise.

    But I think it's hilarious he then goes on to let people know:

    If you feel like some sporty driving every now and then, a quick pull on the handbrake makes sliding this car around the bend very fun.
    Then of course the next line is:

    "All stunt driving is done by a Professional Rally Driver. Do not imitate."
