I already reposted this in car talk a while ago. So this is the third time it's been posted. Why is this in the S2000 gallery?

so what do you guys think? too much steering angle over the crest and the rear got "light" and spun him around. or do you think it was that + some throttle lift oversteer?

too bad for the car but atleast its being used like it was designed to be.

hate seeing nice, very capable cars never get driven hard.

He came in way too hot into the turn before spinning, trying to catch the viper. When he noticed he was coming in too fast, he lifted, but notice that right where he lifts, is an elevation change. So it goes like this:

Too hot into a corner+lifting in the corner+lifting in the corner with an elevation change=a spin that 99% of racers can't correct and enjoy the ride .
