That's a reasonably fast lap in an Evo. He slides the car quite a bit.

Typically all wheel drive cars don't like to turn very much on power, they'd rather go straight, so entry speed is pretty critical as is carrying the brakes into the corner fairly deep in order to get the thing to turn. Once turned power is applied as hard as possible as long as you can keep the thing on the pavement, at least mostly.

Most often times when it feels slow it is. That works for both ends of the slip angle spectrum. When you're overdriving the car, sliding all over, lifting way out of it just to keep the wreck from flying off the track you're slow. If you're under control, squealing the tires a bit, car feels like it's on rails with very little wheel correction you're slow. It is that elusive somewhere in the middle point that very few have the feel to achieve that's fast.

There are some that are criticized for their exceptional driving skill because to some it feels like they're "on the edge" or "out of control".
