Ouch,


1st slide you take in your stride, but the second should be taken as a warning. To ignore the 3rd and 4th isn't very clever.

Bet he wasn't rotational steering :D



Nice of the guy making the video to tell us the driver was OK at the end :wink:

Can't help but wonder if he had a slow puncture, coz he did seem to make a hash of gathering it all up.

Or a rear toe link failure, perhaps - did just look it was snap oversteering too quickly for the speed he was travelleing - I cannot believe he still had his foot in when it all started going pear shaped, so something else was making the back of the car snap too and fro. Anyway, bad luck, but the guy in the MX-5 was killing him anyway ;-)

Nice dry, sunny day, and he has the roof on.

First indication...............

The rest, no idea, would normally take a stunt driver to actually achieve that.

ps possible that it was a mechanical failure, but my first toe link failure at KH was no messing, just threw me sideways off the track.

If it was a toe-link that went then it could just as easily happen on the road. If you're really worried and want to track it then get track insurance :thumbsup

Less trees and truck going in the other direction on track too.
