Not bad for a solid rear axle.

Wheel hop.

The Boss would have REALLY walloped him if they had done a rolling start.

Well at first I was thinking it was a marketing stunt but after watching the boss get sideways a few times I knew he was pushing the limits. It looks like the Boss handled that race very easily or the Camaro was sand bagging. Time will tell!

Meh doubt it. Boss driver blew that launch badly, or that beat down would have been worse. The Bowtie never stood a chance in hell. That wasn't even bringing a knife to a gunfight, more like bringing a vacuum cleaner to a gunfight.

Hey this is the Lightning course at NJMP - probably the first track I'll bring my Boss to.

Best time in my Evo was 1:12:xx, official 1:13:xx - can't wait to see what I can turn. All of that was not from a standing start btw.

Nice video! Spread would have been bigger if the Boss driver had got a better launch. Marketing stunt or not, still a cool video

Quite honestly I'm surprised it wasn't a worse beating. As someone commented, a second lap without blowing off the tires at launch would have probably been 3 seconds or more....

I've driven that track, too! Lotsa fun!

I can believe he got loose exiting T5, that blind right-hander can be tricky!

I've raced with the Boss driver in BMW CCA club racing, but in a different class. I believe he is a third generation racer. A member of the family once said, "Racing is not the same without your *****."

The video I am waiting to see, is "The Stig" taking the Boss around the Top Gear track with that 747 in the background. Then I'll be happy.
