i dont get why after they shift, once they let out hte clutch with their left for they tap the brake real quick with their left foot.

seems like they make sure they still have brakes before a turn or something.

eehhh it looked like just the one guy was doing that, maybe you’re right or maybe he was just braking for the car in front. $$$ supercar smashing into $$$ supercar = BIG oooops. The rest just heal-toed it through the bends and pumped the gas to keep traction.

Side note: the GT-R looked a little floaty, I’m assuming all those cars were driven stock??  
Good video!

the NSX (the one you can buy here) is a joke of a car for $90,000.

Now the NSX-R (which I’ve seen very little of, net vids) Seems like a viable competitor…
