It s always a mustang

Oh...there was PLENTY of breaking. As for braking...maybe not so much

bloody google spell check!

No sympathy for people that road race. There could have been a person standing there or it could have drifted right and took out the spectators. Oh...but who cares when he can prove that his car is faster than a Mustang..right. All well ends well, that's what I say.

Mine too

What i don't understand with this is that there seems to be no attempt at breaking? I am no expert but i have found that trying to put the power down and drive through a power slide never works! If the car starts to slide away from you its both feet in fast and stop the car.
Many of us have done stuff like this (not just in vipers) its a real shame the guy lost the car.

Sadly , yes you're right.

Braking doesn't alway help. If the back end is coming out at speed and you brake you can pitch the car forward and make that rear end spin even more.

This kind of stuff is why these events get cancelled. The potential for hurt people and damaged property just gets too high. I'm glad everyone was ok. We've all stepped on it and had it start to slide out on us. Before I put my new tires on, mine broke loose accelerating on a freeway on ramp. Auto cross is a good place to learn what it feels like to lose control in a safe setting. Fun too.

Serpent, yes the frames are very strong. I was told 1,000lbs of pressure to move the frame one inch.
