I have a strong opinion on what happened, but I will keep quiet... Just in case I get swarmed!

(oops?)

From the video, I believe the white S2000 messed up that turn and just went out of control.

There are some good points from that link. It was obviously the car with the camera had a better driver (not necessary better car, but a better driver) and the S2000 should've yield (just like what the silver Lancer did at some point).

Wow... WAAAY too fast into that section... but I thought the AP1 is an oversteering car? From the vid it almost looked like he didn't steer at all, and if he did he understeered straight out. Then again, I don't think I even saw brake lights before the splash?

But seriously, did someone get "swarmed" for "doing" this to the AP1? It's a track day, not a race... 'sides the camera car did absolutely nothing.

brake fade ? The s2k had some ok lines in that lap and a half, but also had some very very bad ones. simply put - the lancer should have let the s2k pass waay earlier, and the s2k should have let the camera car pass on that inside straight right before he went off. but I've gone off there before and know there is a little bump and it's always soggy there. In that video I can see no 'bump' from the camera car and the s2k driver is clearly in the wrong for pointing fingers at others for his f-ups. Gotta pay to play bud. Expect damage to happen and just deal with it.

Poor guy... or not I guess. The driver should have asked someone to show him around the track first if he didn't know what he was doing.
