Honestly I don't get why people would get pissed if someone did a few highway runs like that on their car. As long as you don't hit anything, it's not like wooding it damages the engine, and aside from the horrific downshifting he didn't really bang any gears so there's no real damage to the tranny. If you've got a modified car you probably drive it that way anyway, so why do you care?
Just my two cents. I drive the piss out of my car, if someone else does I won't be upset unless they break something. In fact I will be upset if they don't get on it (given that I trust them not to wrap it around a tree), because I'd rather them use the chance that I give them to experience the car rather than just granny it.

Blip the throttle and rev match... it doesn't take any extra shoulder motion.
