He left fine but looks like he lost it big time at 2nd or 3rd. Any guesses what went wrong?

Turned TC/ACH off and couldn't correct the fish tail on the upshift.

Driver error.

Oil on the road. Well, that's probably his story.

accelerating on st tires esp on a bend in the road

Amateur whos probably never been on a track..but a few dynos guaranteed.

Used to call them squirrels


Its one thing to get a little loose at lower speeds in 1st but when you get momentum going things happen fast and physics takes over. Along for the ride really at that point

Loss of traction, in a turn.

Most crash videos usually involve a turn. Watch some of the Cars and Coffee crashes.

I see all the innocent people, a guy with his kid on a bike the other biker people in cars and then two total D-bags light it up only caring about themselves and proving how big of horses asses they are and how small their genitals are , I laugh so hard when I see they busted up their cars and no one got hurt. well, I dont care if the two drivers got hurt,

I am not sure what happened the car looks like it got loose on the slight curve during gear change,

But the fact is there are only a handful of cats on this forum who can handle the HP these / their car puts out, bragging, chest thumping and bashing these dolts means zero,

The smartest cats here simply do not get into this type of mess that was caused by a healthy mix of bloated ego, lack of brain function and way too much HP
