Yeah, I know the low-cam adds a lot of speed, but there were some sections where he was easily going fast enough around blind corners that any pedestrian in the road would have been unavoidably killed. I thought the tyre squealing was fake at first but then I wondered... it looks like it was recorded in like the 70s or something? Tyres and suspension were really not very good in those days, and bad tyres will squeal even at low speed... so I'm not sure.
