I really like watching the part of the video from 1:57 to 2:08. If you watch the bottom of the front wheel you can clearly see the outside wall of the tire being pulled in so far that the entire outer rim edge is exposed!! It's amazing to see just how much the tires flex inward under side load!!

Tire looks like it's going to come off the wheel @ 2:05. Scary looking. The Media Blasting looks like it's doing its job...

I didn't see your post before I posted my same observation on the tires! I think it's amazing to see that on video. Riding in a car you would have no idea that much sidewall deflection is happening!

That shot of the front tire at the 1:57 mark is incredible!! Awesome sound also.
