What's your take on this wreck? (EURO white EVO VID)

Sorry if a repost, I just found it and was kinda thrown back at how he's driving on the edge all the time and inducing unsettled rally "style" slides at Every turn.
Looks like a drivers school? Open Track day?
It also looks like he was just begging for it.
And the guys here: https://honda-tech.com/zerothread?id=660921 feel bad for the car. I'd just be happy I was alive if I was in that wreck.

it wasn't in the US. they have different liabilty laws in other countries. At most track days in the US, he'd be black flagged and sent home.

If its the old video I'm thinking of, its a woman driving somewhere in Europe, and she had a tire blow out on a right hand turn, causing her to go off track.

yeah if i remember right she was an instructor trying to prove that you could drift an evo on a road course. she was doing fine until her left front tire rolled over and was basically sheared off the wheel.
she walked away from it, so she's lucky in that sense...

Re: What's your take on this wreck? (bad-monkey)
If it's that old video of that white EVO that eventually rolls over in a right hander (accompanied by the music) after drifting at every corner, it's good to finally know what the reason was. Controlling the car sideways like that so consistently always made me wonder how the heck all of a sudden the car would just plow like that in a turn and go off. This explains it. (And btw if it's the vid I'm thinking it is, it could have been somewhere in France or Belgium since that's french in the background and in the texts.)
