I can't tell if his suspension broke or if his tire burst before the turn. Either event must have startled him.

The aerodynamics of his 747 wing may not of been calibrated or the all the flaming vinyl may have thrown off his weight distribution


In reality though, it just looks like he lost traction on the turn and was caught on some inanimate object of his obvious disliking.

He missed the braking zone. After that he was just a passenger along for a not-so-fun ride.

The car decided it wasn't worth going on. Between the faggoty graphics, the massive wing, and the complete and utter gheyness that is drifting, the car couldn't take it anymore. I think it was the honorable thing to do.

but seriously guys, i think he just regretted that he bought the 350z instead of an s2000, and subconsciously wanted to destroy his 350z so that he can use the insurance money to buy an s2k...

Understeer happened. It looked like he tried to do a feint into the turn in order to drift the ass-end around. But instead the rear tires kept traction, and he was going too fast to turn at that point so the front tires lost traction.

What kind of event was that? Some sort of drift event?
