You think you are a good driver? Check out this guy. He moves around this course like he’s driving a hovercraft on butter. Finally, someone who could probably give the Stig a run for his money. More info after the jump.
The car at first appears to be a Caterham, but there has been some dispute online as to whether it really is or not. Other contend it could be a Locost, which is a kit clone of a Lotus Seven. Any experts out there who know the truth?
Update: The car is a Westfield, driven by Christopher Evans of Ireland. The event was the Ken Wharton Memorial Trophy International Autotest which took place on October 17, 2004.
The amazing thing is there were three drivers faster than him around this course. Unfortunately I can’t find any video of those runs.

The ability to trick drive one car that has been set up in a custom way does not mean you are a good driver. The Stig drives EVERY car incredibly fast.
Nevertheless the guy still has some great skill at what he does, but it is all pretty much practice, knowing the car he is in, and a custom brake force controller.
