Racecar Crashes at Cadwell

[DHJanos]

this track looks fun.

[dixonpeter]

Feel sorry for the chap, he didn't do anything massively wrong if it was a normal car. Those radicals need to be driven hard to work properley, the aero doesn't work if you drive slowly. Should have bought a tintop to start with I think.

[crazymotionride]

this guys getting a lot of stick from others who probably learned about racing from playing forza. Shit happens when you go racing thats why its fun at least hes got the balls to be out doing it!

[andygaras]

looks like a simple mistake to me

[mcwatchthis]

Hey mistakes happen and with this driving technique more often than not !. but the standout thing to me is not the lack of driving prowess but the reving full power on the throttle while attacking the wall at no point does it look like he gets on the brakes and if he didn't collide the wall he might still be trying to catch it. lol

[RobM77]

Blimey - give the guy a break! Yes he's a rubbish driver and yes the crash was his own fault, but there's no need to have such a go at him about it!

[schumiisking]

its pretty obvious what happened, because he was feeding the wheel he thought he'd straightened up the wheel when it was still pointing left. he feeds on the power and surprise surprise, goes left.

one of the most retarded things ive ever seen.

[ja34mo]

youre adding lock after the apex, and throtle. thats why you spun

[bradude2k]

That's what happens when you FEED THE WHEEL IN A RACING CAR.

Why on earth would you feed the wheel in a car with so little lock? Watch an F1 Driver - do they ever let go of the wheel? Do they ever feed it? NO!

What makes you think your way is better then?

[schumiisking]

yup exactly, what a fucking idiot.

shows you how many n00bs there are out there,

LETS USE DRIVING LESSONS TECHNIQUE FOR THE RACE TRACK! THATS CLEVER!

unbelievable. why the fuck would you actually let go of the wheel and feed it in.

christ.

[Preenline]

How the fuck can you do that, I'm sorry but even with the possibility of cold tryres etc... thats just shit car control.... end off.

[mrmr42a]

Some nasty crunching gear shifts at 4-5 seconds in! I don't think I'll be having one of those proshift thingies!

Excellent car control as well - not.

[LocostSam]

actually, i never looked at it properly... but he doesn't straighten up the steering wheel... he's left the wheel turned to the left after the corner and then gotten on the power... pretty sure he wouldn't have spun had he straightened up the wheel (i.e. been steering properly)

[chickmansson]

Never mind roy!

[cyanidemusic]

feed that wheel

[LocostSam]

good point about his steering... his hands are all over the place like he's trying to pass his driving test. hands at 3+9 when racing mister boss man!! don't know why the back stepped out though, did he just get on the throttle too early??

[alang184]

Why the back stepped-out, a combination of:

Cold tyres (look at how slow the pace is)

Possibly first lap out of pits

Got on the power just as caught the kurb/bump

Doesn't know the car (no feel for the power etc)

Doesn't know the circuit (doesn't know where these bumps are).

[LocostSam]

lol! i did realise the possible reasons... i was just saying there didn't appear to be any obvious culprit. But thanks for the reply anywho... :)

[ppappixx]

First time out on the track eh?

[ap78crg]

next time your boss drives and offers you a lift. take a cab

[rude90]

Billy!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[TeckademicsRKFD]

drives like a 90 yrs old grandmother in her buick where the hell are your reaction, your a pathertic excuse for a man

[jgorenc]

Teel your boss he sucks at driving!

[joeformula1]

That is the most pathetic car control i have ever seen

[drakartracing]

i agree!

[poohkiller]

And what the hell was he doing with the steering wheel?! He should have played 5 mins with a PC sim before sitting into a real race car... lol...
