It's tough to avoid rush hour traffic when it's slipping and tumbling off the road like the cars themselves are drunk, but it's damn fun to watch people try. In parts one and two of PC Gamer's GTA IV no friction mod footrace, Evan Lahti and Logan Decker attempted to traverse Liberty City's hellishly dangerous streets, and in part three, former reviews editor Dan Stapleton sets off on his own white-knuckled journey. Watch the introduction above for the back story, and see Dan's run below:

Check back tomorrow for the outtakes, and Friday for instructions on how to turn Liberty City into your very own frictionless nightmare!
