From what I can tell, it had aftermarket rims/tires and a Spoon X-brace.

Another thread (do a search) has the link. As someone mentioned, from the video it does appear to be driver error. What's certain, though, is they were very lucky to walk away. Both airbags deployed. The embankment they rolled down appeared about 10 feet high vertically, at a 40-50% grade. The car settled upside down in the gully. Very sobering.

The photos show the car wasn't entirely stock -- I noted different wheels/tires (S03s?), X-brace (spoon?), and catback exhaust (Mugen?). No other engine mods visible, of course; I also couldn't tell if the car had been lowered.

Glad everyone came out ok from that crash. The sound of the car crashing is scary to hear.

For the love of God people! Please go to the track. Doing that shit on public roads is WAY too dangerous. Come on. We've said it a thousand times before yet only a handful of people show up where it is both legal and safe
