[QUOTE="Randy, post: 576306, member: 443"] yw. You're right - not that big of a mistake for that outcome. I'm wondering if the fact that it was astroturf rather than a natural substance had anything to do with it? It's not uncommon to see racers touch the 'dirt' and gather it up without incident. Granted, anything other than pavement isn't going to have a great adhesion factor, but, he was nearly straight up and down when he went wide. You don't realize how damn fast that turn is until you see something like this. He is very lucky to come out of it relatively unscathed. [/QUOTE]
