SIMPLE RECIPE FOR EXCITEMENT: Take 1 new Exige. Throw in a supercharger. Add 6 gears. A dash of 94 Octane. A sprinkle of style inside and out. Toss in 1 MadMan. And finally heat tires and pavement to taste. Recipe produces 1 Lotus Exige'S' and full satisfaction. Hammer Down!!

looks like he wasn't doing all those things while actually driving. His feet weren't moving and sometimes the turns didn't match exactly. I mean the guy did the laps, then went back and while the guy was just sitting in his car mimicking the steering movements and doing random sh*t. LOL
