Rich, the video was taken on and uploaded by a mobile device so when the mobile view opens, you need to click on desktop view to watch it properly.
Either that or you're not signed in at youtube?

Sad days.

Obviously more money than driving ability. To hoon it round a track is one thing but to drive like that is asking to spank it into the wall.

Did they ban you for making a frankencar? if so they are a bit touchy!
Understeer: when you hit the wall with the front of the car.
Oversteer: when you hit the wall with the back of the car.
Horsepower: how fast you hit the wall.
Torque: how far you take the wall with you.
