This is in car video of Stielow's timed laps. The problem was his seatbelt came loose so he did just about the whole deal steering with his left hand while holding onto the shifter with his right hand to keep him from sliding out of the seat. At the end of the video he holds the belt up in front of the camera. Enjoy.

Check out 1:04 of the second chapter as you see his left thumb on the right side as he is turning. LOL

I have a funny vision in my head...If he had had his seatbelt on he could have been using his right hand to eat a Ham sandwich.

Watch the key chain on the car keys around the turns. That is a fast car.

Cool video. Without the belt I'm sure he left some time on the table. Car pulls hard. Get everything set, good plan, etc. and a dang seat belt comes loose, now that's bad luck.

So he came in what, 3rd? Driving with one hand? Am I reading the results right, with one hand he ran almost identical runs? 01:49.3 01:49.4
