I can see something like that happening for getting loose going into 2nd gear or something, but I just don't understand... he turned around, went like 15mph and just lost it.

That was really odd. I'm not sure I could replicate something like that at such a low speed even if I tried. Guess he learned he needs driving school.

The modlist is representative of his driving ability (noob). Stear clear of anyone with
a Hypertec. He probably had a tornado and an electric supercharger as well.

I don't get either guys. Is he trying to nascar warm the tires or something? I don't hear it really in the gas so it wasn't a powerslide. I used to do that on my go cart cause it didn't have enough power to powerslide lol

I'm not gonna lie, I did that once on a street here in town in my old mustang. Wasnt used to all the torque since I was a noob and did a 360 in the street and luckily didn't hit anything.

Warming the tires is a moot point if they are street tires, x2 on a street surface.

You can have some fun oversteer just by rocking the car at the right rate, looks like his car and threshold was really really low.

That was a good kill for the Lightning in the first race. He nailed him off the line in both. Anyone know what happened to the TA?

Damn his tires must have been completely bald!!! If you watch race #2, you see once he launches he almost loses the car there too but regains control. That sucks, I hope his car wasn't too damaged after he went off-road.
