I am glad that he is ok because he could still say "Fuck". His insurance company will most likely pay for this and hope we can see him driving a new STI in YOUTUBE sometime soon.

[jeyping]

Yeah he replaced the Legacy GT with another Legacy GT which he still has. I believe he also has a CTS-V now too.

[FordFusion2006]

did he have to pay for that?

[jeyping]

I'm sure - he was driving his own car, and it was totalled.

unlucky mate

av bin in a car that rolled on a track day but the car i was in had a roll cage good job it did seeing how much the roof on ur car collapsed

but good to say u dint get badly hurt and do u still go racing?

[jeyping]

Wasn't my car but from Patrick's story online he wasn't hurt, and yes he still does track days and stuff.

Lift off oversteer. amateur mistake

[Danthekarterman]

Dude if u look at his hands when the back end of the car begins to step out, he does nothing... He has such a delayed reaction that he could have easily saved it. Not to take anything away from the guy of course and i am glad that he is okay but he could have saved some money if he had quicker hands. Nothing teaches u better than racing go-karts. :)

its called COUNTER STEERING

[theheavensx]

@vincent82123 Actually, I'm not sure where Lime Rock Park is, so depending on his state/insurance company, chances are they won't insure him since he's on the track. :) I could be wrong, but I know that's how it is here in Pennsylvania.

yeah your initial response was correct but once its obvious that your going to spin you should cut the wheel the other way your front tires were perpendicular to their direction of travel causing them to dig and all the force went above the point of friction (i.e. where the rubber meets the dirt). glad your ok, really gotta know what to do if your going to be on the track though

[JoaoSuperCarros]

you dont have any reflexes...

Too early into the turn

[AWDfreak]

Even though I have never done an autocross or a track day, I have had an instance where my Subaru Outback started to spin. I was turning left, felt the rear-end start to spin, then I immediately countersteered, turning the wheel at least 180 degrees when my Subaru went over a patch of mud on a mountain pass. The countersteer was perfect, and I was fine.

Even an overconfident fool like me has a better reaction. Or perhaps the guy got unlucky or something...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH!! Ran out of talent

[daqqer2k]

Slow hands wreck cars.

[phidelt733]

He's not a skilled driver to roll a AWD Subaru. The turn was so easy to corner. Rookie

[phidelt733]

you must suck as a driver to roll a AWD Subbie.
