I saw that video a few months back. Supposedly he just had an aftermarket brake system installed, and it failed. There was going to be a lawsuit, not sure if it was against the installer or the manufacture.

You would be amazed how calm some people are when they know there is nothing they can do. I remember just sitting back at HRP and letting the car go until the second wall stopped it. It certainly did not feel good but what can you do? When you are going that fast and you lose all control of the car...there is no fixing it...just have to let it ride and pray that you make it out alive! When you realize that you are still alive you kiss the ground you walk on <img border="0" alt="[hail]" title="" src="graemlins/gr_hail.gif" />
