Only thing I saw about it when they first showed the car was that it is 845 HP 
Love those shots of the throttle linkage and inside the engine bay. Randy's Donuts shot was awesome too 
LOL. I didn't know they gave it a name "Hoonicorn"

In the final donut scene you see a bunch of traffic piled up on the one highway, but for the most part shooting in the middle of the day it doesn't have as big of an impact if it was in the morning or during rush hour when everyone is trying to get home.
Love what looked like the bombed out STi in the LA River hahaha.

That car is a freakin work of art. I'm curious if he's gonna try pikes peak in that car. LOL!
There were a lot of your normal yeah he can do donuts kind of stuff going on but then if you're really paying attention his driving was probably better in this one than any other.
How close he got on that 180 in the water way was nuts.
The fact that he went wide open in 6th on that overpass is nuts. Dude was probably doing 170mph on the down side when he hammered the brakes for that 180. You can see the back of the car damn near come off the ground he got into the brakes so hard. *****!
And the donuts around the donut shop... classic. The best part is the fact that they hand a camera placed and he freaking drove right over it. Accurate exit on donuts like that is not easy.
And that burn out in the beginning. Hands down the coolest AWD burn out I've ever seen.
Main thing I was impressed with is the part that they didn't do enough to focus on... his speed. He was FLYING for most of that video.
