you know... we all make mistakes and even National Level Drivers have incidents.
..but after seeing the video twice and laughing a bit less, this was MULTIPLE RUNS! We boot people if they can't show restrain after several runs.
those cones for that region must all look like my avatar when he's up

Forreal... after he hit the second tree I woulda pulled his *** off the track. The guy is driving way beyond the limits of the car, and OBVIOUSLY way beyond his ability (which there seems to be little of). I pray to god this guy never trys to street race, because no ammount of "Damnit!" will take back running over a pedestrian.
Only thing that could have made that video more enjoyable woulda been an 8 lapping his *** everytime he spun out.
God I wish all the Mustang fanbois catch a glimps of this, just goes to show what one slolam turn can do to all that straight line performance. HP dont mean squat if it sends your sorry *** into trees/barbwire fences! Granted, there is alot to be said for how much this drivers sucks, but anyone pushing that car that hard woulda spun out.

Wow. That's bad. Here if you go off track 3 times, they kick you out. It doesn't even need to be nearly that bad. Admittedly we don't have trees or fences to deal with either. It's really a safety thing.
Judging by the big uber tach and shift light, the guy is probably a drag racer. It shows. He doesn't know what to do in a corner.

I'm not familiar w/ that Mustang.
Does it have a clutch?
Cause it seems this guy has no idea you can push the clutch in to avoid stalling.

Uhm, look ahead...
Who in the hell is stupid enough to ride with this guy?
WTF is up with running on a golfcart path two feet away from "trees" (those look like bushes to me), and for the hell of it, lets put some chicanes in the path to throw people off.
Instead of all the money this guy spent on video and data acquisition, he should have spent it on an evo class and a set of race tires....
Don't blame his driving on the car...though I am sure that his car is the case of having tons of power and still running the stock, stoneage suspension.
