Yeah, that gets your attention. I had a Miata spin in front of me at my first event at TWS and he ended up in a tire wall. I also had an AC Cobra spin in front of me at MSR in Horseshoe going clockwise. He lost it again in Rattle Snake when he was a couple cars ahead of me.

The camera has a 120deg wide angle lense, so the car is actually closer than it appears. But as you can see in the video... I sensed he was going to lose it and let him accelerate away from me as we entered the turn

LOL ... funny how one can predict a train wreck before it happens.
