What's really amazing is how he keeps it straight on the grass and back on the track.

Agreed. Amazing level of skill. I had to repeat that clip at least a dozen times. Thanks for posting it.
Eyes are peeled alright. Not in the same league as that but brings some interesting comparison to snowmobiling with a fast group of sledders (70 to 80 mph + squirts to 100) in whiteout conditions on unfamiliar twisty, elevation changing, tree lined narrow trails for endless miles. I can't explain it what that zone is and where your heart is beating crazy but best described as near insane. My guess is Jacques Villeneuve Jr., also an avid sledder had trained eyes for conditions in the rain.
