From: FIXED the Hack: IWSTI>iclub - really, was the hack necessary; as in why the insecurity? Most people on this forum don't even have an STI- so that site isn't meant for them anyway- damn communists and their free-speech stifling ways

It looked like the driving skill of a really new driver, or someone that was nervous out of their mind, but either way it's really got to suck crashing in that manner.

judging from the smoke off the tires he locked them up when he saw the tree coming for him. turning the wheel might not have had much effect anyway.
new record for 0-60-0 in a 350z? haha

To emphasize again : that was NOT AN AUTOCROSS EVENT!!!
Rather, it was an event put on by Drift Circuit at Qualcomm Stadium in San Diego this past weekend. There was a separate SCCA Autocross event at the same site going on at the same time.
That drift course wouldn't come even close to meeting SCCA Autocross course safety standards

umm...yeah....ouch.
Try explaining that to the wife.....then I'd feel sorry for him.
And that is BS the way the course was set up.....they definately didn't even think about that.
Initial entry off of a straight into the curve....yeah....the tree belongs there
