ZR1 crash

Might be a repost, but I just stumbled upon this today. I'm sure plenty of people will let me know if it is.

I remember my first 638hp car.

That does blow. That Vette sounded sweet though. He let off the gas too fast when he started to get sideways

Yep gotta feather the throttle not let off completely. You do that and it shifts the weight to fast. Inexperienced driver

I use to laugh when I was driving 300hp cars when I seen videos like that saying what an idiot. Now that I drive 500hp cars, I easily see how quickly the rear end jumps out beyond control. I learned the hard way, dont down shift into 3rd, slam the throttle, while changing lanes. I did a 360 and ended in the dirt median.
