Rollover

[DanO]

A buddy of mine, who is a certified Porsche freak, sent me this link. If you have the time to download 5.1mb it’s worth the wait. http://vb.icantclick.org/gallery/movie click on Rollover. According to my buddy, this is what happens when you try to follow a 911 through the corners at Lime Rock, in a Subaru!

Looks to me like the particular car had nothing to do with it. That's what happens when you (a) turn into a corner too early, and (b) "pinch" the exit (follow the inside curbing past the apex instead of letting the car track out to the opposite side of the track). Don't blame the car, blame the nut that holds the steering wheel.

This video has been around quite awhile...
If you know performance driving, and especially if you know Lime Rock, this guy was out of shape long before the screwed up attempt at that last bend.
