can anyone guess as to how this guy lost it?



didn't really hear him punch it or downshift during turn. maybe the sand?

nice vid, but I have no idea how he lost control. He sounded pretty pissed, though.

my guess would be weight distribution...

possibly induced lift on the rear from braking ...

couldnt recover thereafter..

although it sounds as though he was on the throttle during the turn...

so my other guess would be just traction loss...tires

i agree. i think he came out the first half of that 's' turn too wide and then he tried to cut the apex too deep.
