This one isn't "bad" driving, but a bad choice of line that unsettled the car. This is a very fast sweeper, turn 8, at Roebling Road Raceway.

He's completely inside the pit lane at the start of the video. Fail.

Jump to 7:00.
The video is taken from inside a $600 beater miata gone ultra-cheap trackrat special. Ebay coilovers, almost completely used SM cast-off RA1's. The driver of the black corvette used to be CDI for the local Porsche club. |
I liked your "allergic to apexes" comment in the other thread. Horrible.

What not to do on the track. - YouTube simply because of how slow the reaction time is in this video. Its almost as if he just wanted to roll.

SCCA Spec Miata at Sebring this Sunday had a one lap dash to the finish after a series of yellows. Frustration and egos begat predictable asshattery.

What's that I hear about Porsche drivers? This is exactly what it looks like- and victim is freshly built IT Integra.
|
where did that Porsche even come from?
|
Directly behind him. Supposed bad qualifying had the Porsche pushing hard to the front on the first lap. Ya know- stuff like four wheels off in the grass and so on. I can't come up with a reasonable explanation for it.
Found this on a regional blog: The Acura Integra of Cliff Ira and the Porsche 944 of Shane Doles and Charles Coker had an incident at Turn 9. The car of Doles and Coker was disqualified for “Avoidable contact”. |
"Proper dive bombing technique"

That's how I used to win in Gran Turismo!
|
I'm impressed. At :29 you can see that the driver saw him coming in his mirrors and avoided being the first punt-ee. Nice awareness.
|
|
... what in the world? How is that even possible? Seems like an amateur among pros, or a seriously messed up car.
|
when youre rich, nothing but skill will stop you.

That is what would happen if you let me on the track in that car... the difference is I KNOW this... he didn't seem to understand.

A vid from a trackday in the pouring rain a couple of years ago.. im driving my e92 bmw and beeing careful at the end of the straight because of accidents.. the guy in the audi tried to brake at the same place he would in the dry... on his first lap out in the wet. not even a tester lap to judge the level of grip(or lack thereof)

OH TIM GOD DAMMIT I ended up crossing 5 lanes of road and hitting the drivers side rear corner on the concrete barrier. I had time to think about it and chose to take it on the corner rather than attempting to straiten the car out and possible wiping out the whole drivers side from front to back against the concrete if I had kept sliding.
