Lift off + corner = teh bad. Sounds like the driver might not be the owner either...

I've seen that vid before, looks like he went too fast in to the corner and caught a little air after hitting the slight bump in the road?

I think he should've realized he was in trouble long before he went off track when he started gaining on that Viper so quickly. Either way, sucks to be him...I hope he got some sort of racing/track event insurance.

I feel for him when it comes to damaging a nice car. Although it comes with the territory when you're tracking it.

Thanks for sharing.

Watching his hands on the wheel in the 1st minute scares me...
