Why Tiff Needell Rules

Here's a clip from Top Gear back in 1989 showing Grand Prix reject Tiff Needell at the wheel of his Sierra Cosworth Group A touring car. He's demonstrating how to put 550 horsepower onto the road with limited tires and, in so many countersteer corrections, why I like watching him on video.

Here's the full clip, and the Sultan of Slide moment is at about 5:52 in.
