Can you please take this link down NOW. I will not ask nicely the next time. I understand that this is your first post, or a second avatar but this really need to be cleared up before it can be discussed. You have no PM yet but I hope you understand.

First of all, thank God the driver and passenger are OK.

Second of all, and I know that I'm gonna get flamed for this, please, please, please don't push the limits in these cars unless your on the race track. I can't say it enough. If you're gonna drive the car hard, do it where the car was meant to be run hard... the track and not on the street.

Be careful everyone. A minute's lapse in judgement can have ramifactions that can last a life time. Public roads just aren't the place to push the lmits! Sermon over.

Again, thank God these people were ok.

I am against StormBringer on this one....

This video NEEDS to be seen. People need to go "oh sh*t" when they see this. And they need to realize that driving isn't all fun and games. Accidents happen, and 80% of them at the least are driver error.

Yes, I know i am gonna get flamed for this.

The individuals that were directly involved in this incident made it clear to those around (myself and StormBringer included) that they would rather not have this footage released.

There will be a time to review what happened, that time is not now. For the time being let's respect the wishes of those directly involved, and when their affairs are settled, then we can talk about it. Thank you.

It seems StormBringer is so upset that I am not sure the reason. What did he want to clear up? This was released by someone who tape it. If they do not want to be posted, they will not release to anyone else. The reason to post this is to ask people to drive safely. I am aslo surprise that the roll bar is so useful.

The insurance company won't need a video to piece together what happened.....high proformance car,twisty road,case closed.....is not as if the owner can tell um he just parked it on the shoulder to take a leak in the bushes,and when he returned it was laying upside down in the ditch.
