Now when he begins to slide you see his natural instinct is to correct to the right, where if he kept it turned to the left and floored it, maybe it coulda been saved...what do u think?

It didn't look like he was going that fast.Problem with some Auto-X guys is they dont know when to say okay I dont have this! That Chick at Good Guys a few weekends ago could have easily cranked into it and saved it but they all just think they "have it" and dont know when to crank into it and by the time the Reality hits and its all bad is when it ALL BAD! ![[burnout]](graemlins/burnout.gif) OOPs

Funny thing is it sounds like my Brothers old Datsun 510. That thing was a slug, all noise but was fun as fuck to slide around in. But back to topic, that dude hit hard! Oh and Blind, you were scoot'n in that vid!

Interesting.
Me personally, I'll throw a vette sideways at your FACE! Lol
and now that I've actually watched the video I will say that NONE of you could have avoided that accident once in a full sideways slide like that. And that parking lot is just sketch to begin with....

I agree, the kinks leading into the final straight are way too close to the curbs, I've lost it and done a 4 wheel drift a few times in the back corners exiting the figure 8 area as well.
I think the kink should be flipped so if you punch it without being straight enough like that vette did, the ass would pitch you toward the infield and not at the curb.

In that video I don't think I had it in the car yet, I don't light the tires up nearly as easily with the irs as I did with the old sra setup. Pretty much every corner I had a tire spinning on the exit in that vid, lots of smoke.
