I watched it a few times, he did steer, but he didn't increase the input like most would when there's no reaction.... its clear the front of his suspension was maxed out and possibly airborne by the time he was descending the crest.

This is why you take your first laps on a new track slowly, so you learn it

I wonder which it is?
+1 agreed

If I did something that reckless and happened to catch it in hi-def video, I'd definitely never post it anywhere. Internet scrutiny lasts forever!

Exactly. He went into that crested curve set up all wrong and then flailed, like he'd never driven the road. Dumb to be hammering it on a public road surrounded by rocks and trees, extra points for not have done a couple of slow recon passes to understand the road.

Jeez, what was this, the kids first day driving a car?

Look at his hands on the wheel, they're all over the place! and you hardly ever hear him lift, not even after he caught air, its almost like he was TRYING to total that car!

I'd have to imagine that first big rock that he center-punched made it well into the oil pan, and probably put bumper parts into the crankcase, probably nothing salvageable in front of the C pillar.

Glad to hear about him getting a Mustang, that's sure to be a much better handling car

The only positive thing I see here is the mounting location of the camera, it provides a wonderful view of the whole thing.
