Too much car, and not enough driver.

When the rear tires break loose at higher rpm's (you can hear him/her getting on it), the rear end can come around faster than most people think possible.

Shoulda kept the traction control turned on. One of our W Michigan crew tried getting on it with his black LT4 a couple of years ago with the traction control turned off. Went sideways, jumped a curb and busted a wheel, some suspension parts, one of the headers and crunched some body work.

No racing involved?

The beginning of the video hes running the black vette. As to what caused the accident I agree with Rollama-LT4s statement. Its obvious

If I was the other vette's owner I would have had to have my hands pried off of his throat. The other guy was enjoying his ride until that jerk had to do something stupid.
