I got my free t-shirt, they were basiclly begging people at the end to take them.

LOl omar, It wasnt a spin out, it was a "tactical move to counter the understeer".

The vredistiens i had in the front killed the runs with the understeer but other than that the 8 makes one hell of a track car.

nycgps it was the black G35.
I saw him oversteer, then either his "anti-stupid" kicked in or he paniced, next thing is see is his car fishtailing and then kaboom.

He Understeered, then either he or the car corrected it, in the proccess the back kicked out and sent him into the wall. There was serious body roll and braking through all of this as if the car or him was trying to correct it.

Once i get the camera uploaded you might be able to picture the fail better. I have a picture of him coming out of the turn, one of him sliding, and then the crash aftermath.
I was trying to get the pics of the skylines running as they were in the same run but ended up withh the g35 crash

I took a few shots but not much. It was too much fun that sometimes I "forgot that I have da camera"

rofl, @ the track I kept my gear in 3rd position the whole time.maybe thats why it was slow, but hey, thats why I never spin/crash rofl :P

Was the G35 black ? u sure ? ... hmmm ......

when did the accident happen anyway? near the end of the day ? or ?

on my 1st run the instructor was in my car (i was the pace car) and told me to keep it in 3rd, its for safety issue. thats why I did the same thing even in my 2nd run.
