| Exactly the reason tracking my daily puts me right off.
If he'd kept his foot in i'm sure it would have pulled through that corner no problem but his bottle went lol.
Nice that it spun around for us all to see the damage tho eh ?
Looks like all the side curtain airbags deployed :(

| yeah, I wondered if it was a bit of lift off oversteer which the driver overcompensated and then sent it spinning the otherway.

| Saw this happen and it was not his car it was an Audi loan car from a dealership....Bet they're pleased....lol
Andrew the black Audi behind was a new RS6 that was doing accompanied laps and everytime he came to that corner he was flicking the rear out and smoking all four tyre's...lol Looked impressive to say the least.Think he must have seen the accident and decided against it this time!!! | | | | |

| the driver defo didnt look happy lol. He obviously bottled it. Didnt know the car and paid the price. I had a similar experience years ago in an old cosworth that i had just bought. I managed to control it and didnt bin it luckily but it scared the crap out of me. ive since learnt not to track a brand new car and certainly not a rental or borrowed car. | | | | |

Question: why does it have to be one or the other? even pros have bad accidents. and ive seen some amatures do some amazing driving. | | | | |

| tracking your car/bike doesn't have to end up painful guys .... even if it's your pride and joy you don't have to go at "break neck " speed and end up in trouble .
The track is the best place to search for your limits ( usually way before the cars) and enjoy it at the same time , no cops , no camera's ...
daily driver or not you can have far more fun safely on a track day than on the public highways.
if you do take it to the track you just have to be sensible and build up rather than take "all commers" in the corners and loose control in the corners as rs4 boy did ..
