Actually I did something retarded. On that bust turn, the first 5 or so laps I've braked as normal and noticed that I could clearly carry more speed through it. Well, I decided not to brake and see what happens. I was thinking I could flat foot it. lol
nah just ripped my splash guard off and melted a little to my cat. nothing major at all. I daily drive this car too haha. Alignment is a little off also.

Re: JCrim @ Texas World Speedway 23JUL2010 Road Racing Honda Fit
well ive been off many times in my track days of learning so im pretty familiar with what it feels like when its not gonna happen, so i just go straight off instead of spinning out and doing 1080s off the track. been there before, no fun and scary ****. id rather have a "controlled off" then chancing it. dont get me wrong though, it isnt like i just give up into submission and go off. there are many many times where i save it but that one was just too extreme as i last looked down at my MPHs right before going off it was at 90ish +. i was probly exiting faster than that though because as you are going off, you naturally attempt to reduce the situation by braking (reflex). so i think when i looked down as i was going off, i was already braking >_< lol

K powa... Didnt someone K a fit already... Yea they did...thats what you need.
Im glad you just let the car stay off track and let it coast.. correcting at that speed even though it was a Fit.. dangerous. Good Job.
Thats a pretty big track, but everything is big in Texas.
Almost looked like you were driving on the freeway, until i saw the EG blow by and disappear.
I'd track a "Wheezer" if it were Kpowered though.
Film editing id give you a B.
Music.. made me start groovin as I was drinking my coffee!

Many yahoos, try and get the car back on track, and end up flipping it.
I saw one of those at buttonwillow last year.
Both drivers had to be cut from the car and luckilly werent hurt too bad.
The Civic SI totalled.
