The Lightning performed the precision immobilization tactic on the TA

something like that happened to me when i first got my v6 camaro.

looks like as he was regaining control when he first got squirrely, he punched the gas and couldn't feel how much it was going to whip to the other side... when it whipped back, he was too sideways to recover.

you guys think he should have stayed on the gas?

Idiots like this is why the f-body gets the reputation of having poor handling. F-bodys actually have pretty good handling when compared to the average car. At least he won the race

Looks like he tried to break the rearend loose by turning his wheel back and forth and when he finally did it he had the wheel turning too far left, then slammed his brakes.
