Nowt fake about it!

Simply poor tyres and a driver who's not clued up to how the RR works!

Almost got stuck in sand when I first got my RR as I didn't know how to use it! TDV8 HST Sport **Current**

4.4 V8 Autobiography and 22" wheels **Gone**

Not only slicks - but mud slicks! The tread actually still has to be there (tires can't be bald) to get maximum slipability! It holds a layer of mud to the outside of the tire and, in effect, creates a tire made of mud which slips just wonderfully on... mud. Worse than ice. Anyone who's ever experienced it can attest to the fact that the vid is not necessarily fake.
M/T's have huge gaps between the tread blocks so as not to hold the mud. Even if they do, kick the throttle and the centrifugal force will generally clear them. Nothing like that with street tires. They just hold the mud like there's no tomorrow.

I know exactly where that was filmed.... Car park at Devils Pit pay n play site. I have also had traction issues there but to be fair was towing a Brian James car trailer.

Looks like he's got enough rotational speed to spin but not enough for TC to cut in and probably got DSC on. That said, it will be 90% due to tyres.
