@68ray Yea youre right. Watched it again several times and its clear that the front tires are skidding all the way until they grip and then sends the rear out instantly. Ive done the same thing a few times, luckely never hit anything :P
There was a bump i think... the car went up then the front started to go down having less traction than it should and when the front landed all the way front tyres griped and u got oversteer...
Big Bend at Lime Rock has two types of pavement with different traction properties. Very touchy getting on the gas exting this turn. If you've never been there and tried it, you know not of which you speak.
my first reaction would be countersteer and BRAKE (as hard as possible without locking up the wheels). this guy countersteered and didn't brake LOL toom uch momentum once he got off the track
@badSTI it would have slowed his momentum down so he could straiten out easier, because he didn't brake the rear end got too far out on him making countersteering not an option at that point and the car just goes where it is pointed b/c the traction at the speed is not good enough to change directions so quickly. Don't try and act like i'm stupid internet kid. I've got a Porsche 951 and go out to Road Atlanta a lot so I've had my share of track time.
stupid internet kid....nice......well about 98% drivers who know what they are doing will tell you to give the car gas and point the front wheels where you want to go, the wieght would have transfered to the rear, regained traction and he would have just slid through the corner. Your reaction is to save your precious porsche, while a professional reaction is to go fast and not lose as much time due to the slide. Anyways....dont wreck your porsche anytime soon.
@badSTI that is an option too, but if the track has oil on it or something like they claim he still would have slid off, just in the other direction. btw, what drivers are you talking about that know what they're doing?
@Soffex Ive been to the track a few times myself, and also, took advanced racing technique classes. I dont see anything on the track that would have made the car slide. As you can see in the video the corner is banked or cambered, whatever word choice youd prefer, and at the end of the corner the banking goes away, suddenly turning into a flat or possibly even off-camber corner. This caused the loss of traction because suddenly the wieght of car transfers.
The switch from the concrete patch to the asphalt is rough too. Watch when the blue gets loose, it's right when the RR transitions to the asphalt. This is why they say don't race your car unless you would be willing to drive it off a cliff. iRacing.com for me.
The switch from the concrete patch to the asphault is rough too. Watch when the blue gets loose, it's right when the RR transitions to the asphault. This is why they say don't race your car unless you would be willing to drive it off a cliff. iRacing.com for me.
It's not the drivers fault, I've been to plenty of tracks where they dont clean up anything after the day, and you could have oil / antifreeze on the ground from a previous track day. Sucks that he wrecked the car.
@z24supercharged i tried it,and it works ,(if ur front wheels r not under-steering)
when the rear end start sliding,if u throw the steering to the left just as fast as u can, the car will be adjusted AND U WILL make the car slide to the opposite direction, And then if u r good enough u will through it again to the right and then to the left...until u handle the car
IM SORRY AGAIN FOR UR CRASH..but this is the Truth
@ObviouslyBoredKid I have no clue about this, but I'm pretty sure you sign a waiver before you go on the track which includes something like this. So probably not.
to which point you are ALL idiots... because it is LOSES it with one O, not "looses" it... like "my girlfriend is LOOSE", or "i am going to LOSE the race in my STI"...
wtf are you racing an STI on a paved road for anyway??? :)
that sucks man. Hope that the subi didnt get hurt to bad. I would have been so nervous at the beginning when that other guy hit that oil slick an almost lost it. Ill be sure to look out for those when i hit the track!
shame to see someones pride and joy ruined, however how comes this track seems to have concrete patches instead of tarmac at the apexes.... seems rather dangerous
not oil spot...is called understeer...this guy accelerates in the corner. Everyone that runs in tracks nows by rule that you have to brake before the corner and accel after the apex...this guy accel's at the apex. Just look at the corners before. He took about 3 of them too wide and fast in the entering with slow launches.
there was a darker patch of cement on the track right at the blue car's rear wheels when he broke traction... you did what you could to counter, but once you got sideways....... goodbye. good vid!
@Makreel44 I don't know, mate. Once he started slipping, the best he could have done is avoiding the tire wall. I've seen a lot of crashes where the outcome was hurt by the driver trying to stay on the track vs. having a more controlled off.
your boy has the best response to this: "God I'm sorry Brian". If you had someone like me, who doesn't know how to react it would have sounded like this: "Man... heeeey, shoulda bought an Evo".
Any track-going carlover knows this can happen, it happened thousands of times with the best...the thing is you don't give up and learn from the crashes .
You have to meet the limits before you really know where they lie .
I think he reacted nice , not being too mad about it, just a bit of grief , like it should be . Get it repaired and go back as soon as possible!
@jiujitsu11 yes actually, and i own an evo. why is it that almost all reviews and comparisons between the two prefer the crisp sharp evo handling over the wrxs handling? evos win in handling tests almost every time due to wrxs known understeer. and why is it that evos hold most of the time attack records amongst awd cars? must not have anything to do with handling... but to each is their own, as you prefer the wrx handling, and i prefer the Evos
a car doesnt just rotate like that, it wasn't understeer in the turn, it was turning perfectly, maybe even rotating a little too much.
Snap oversteer is caused by throttle (too much or lifting off)..none of which he did, and none of which would dramatically effect an AWD car
Coming off that turn he probably should have straightened the wheel a bit earlier, but even still something caused the car to rotate like that...whether it was oil or the racing surface (i doubt..LRP is a famous track).
Gotta be something there?? You gotta be kidding me! That was the biggest plough understeer, grab into massive oversteer i've ever seen. Learn basic car dynamics!
@bobba84 plough understeer? The car was oversteering through half of the turn, he was doing a great job at controlling it until coming out of the turn.
Surface may be crappy, but slow hands caused that incident. He kept the wheel pinched far too long after transitioning from concrete to pavement, and didn't correct fast or far enough when he started to oversteer...
@Wayneright True but still the difference between asphalt (especially once it has some heat in it) to concrete is like dirt and ice. I wouldn't even push it on that! Feel very sorry for Brian
@ SpoonHPR. That was my thought exactly! I wonder why Lime Rock didn't properly repair that section. Last I checked I didn't see that kind of "work" at Infinion or Laguna.
To all the know-it-alls who haven't noticed yet, there was an oil patch on the track. Watch the car in front of him at 0:16. He looses it at exactly the same place on the track.
@fiveightandten I don't know about that. They both dialed in more steering right before they lost it. I'd be more inclined to think that's the cause. Also, if you jump back and forth, you can see that he's going faster the second time.
@fiveightandten It was driver fault, because he tryes to look like a professional with those gloves, but it sucks, when the cars starts to slide, he just turns the wheel for 90º, and when the cars is completly lost he turns the rest.... patetic... This is in a AWD car, because in a RWD would be much worse...
@fiveightandten. to which point then he's an idiot as he just watched somone loose it infront of him the lap before but still push's it the very next lap. jesus what sort of an idiot does that!!!!!
if it was then the car should have lost grip at the first lap when it was doing the same speed as the car up front that almost lost it in that turn... it didn't even show any signs of lost grip....
@mmamdouh75 in my opinion this is due to the track layout itself... this track is inclined to the right at that corner which allows you to go fast and deep but at the exit it becomes level before the corner ends so suddenly you got less grip to hold the G force you are generating and that triggers the spin... you can see at 1:36 the tire marks of previous victims of this tricky area
@mmamdouh75 Yes the corner goes from a cambered corner to an off camber corner, ive raced on a track very similar to this where ur takeing the corner perfectly fine and then the corner changes at the end causeing the car to lose wieght on the outside wheels which induces the slide. Off camber corners are challenging but once u know they are there u know what to do.
ulgy understeer, too much inside at the last turn and not enought room to fix the mistake, tapping the brakes made it bad. sucks man... how's the car? any pics or vids of the out side? that just gota hurt...
The driving instructor is the funniest part. I love how he just agreed there must be something on the track. Instead of taking responsibility of not warning him about the transition from concrete to asphalt. (maybe he did and that part wasn't posted) regardless is very funny comment.
I've got an '05 STi and I've done this before. And instead I just slammed hard on the brake it kept me on the street, but I ended up doing a 180. People think because it's an AWD car that you can't spin out, but your rear end is pushing out more power than your front. All I can say is that an early counter-steer may have helped but I've been in the exact same situation and its difficult to tell if it's just a little normal "slide" or if its going to come completely out.
Y is he sowwy??

To all the know-it-alls who haven't noticed yet, there was an oil patch on the track. Watch the car in front of him at 0:16. He looses it at exactly the same place on the track.
This was not the fault of the driver.

Well you would think that seeing that from the car in front he would perhaps take it abit easier at the same point the lap after.

@fiveightandten I don't know about that. They both dialed in more steering right before they lost it. I'd be more inclined to think that's the cause. Also, if you jump back and forth, you can see that he's going faster the second time.
I wonder what kind of tires they were running.

@fiveightandten It was driver fault, because he tryes to look like a professional with those gloves, but it sucks, when the cars starts to slide, he just turns the wheel for 90º, and when the cars is completly lost he turns the rest.... patetic... This is in a AWD car, because in a RWD would be much worse...

@fiveightandten. to which point then he's an idiot as he just watched somone loose it infront of him the lap before but still push's it the very next lap. jesus what sort of an idiot does that!!!!!

@fiveightandten Yeah, and if you look at the road where they went off there are like 20 other skidmarks there from other cars that went off.

@fiveightandten We can see actually the patch, it is a long one. Did you see it?

@fiveightandten
well... i don't think it was oil
if it was then the car should have lost grip at the first lap when it was doing the same speed as the car up front that almost lost it in that turn... it didn't even show any signs of lost grip....

@mmamdouh75 in my opinion this is due to the track layout itself... this track is inclined to the right at that corner which allows you to go fast and deep but at the exit it becomes level before the corner ends so suddenly you got less grip to hold the G force you are generating and that triggers the spin... you can see at 1:36 the tire marks of previous victims of this tricky area
mmamdouh75 1 year ago
@mmamdouh75 Yes the corner goes from a cambered corner to an off camber corner, ive raced on a track very similar to this where ur takeing the corner perfectly fine and then the corner changes at the end causeing the car to lose wieght on the outside wheels which induces the slide. Off camber corners are challenging but once u know they are there u know what to do.

The driving instructor is the funniest part. I love how he just agreed there must be something on the track. Instead of taking responsibility of not warning him about the transition from concrete to asphalt. (maybe he did and that part wasn't posted) regardless is very funny comment.

I've got an '05 STi and I've done this before. And instead I just slammed hard on the brake it kept me on the street, but I ended up doing a 180. People think because it's an AWD car that you can't spin out, but your rear end is pushing out more power than your front. All I can say is that an early counter-steer may have helped but I've been in the exact same situation and its difficult to tell if it's just a little normal "slide" or if its going to come completely out.
