Hahahaha, that was a nice move to avoid the crash but he locked up in the pit! Lucky those crew guys were paying attention. Oh man. My buddy did the 1st stage and this stage of the school and said it was phenomenal. Luckily Limerock is only about an hour from my house. I think I'll head to a class next summer.

i was talking to the Mechanic who didnt jump the wall, the one who ran left and he said it was the most knee-jerk reaction ever. dident even have time to make a decision which way to go just to GO!

he chose the correct way. it almost looks like he could of controlled it if he didn't slam on the brakes, although he would be flying through the pits.

na, you never go into the pits at speed. you t-bone the K wall before you enter the pits.

what if there had been more crew. or a race event. or they had been prepping a school to go out on track and had 15 school cars gridded in the pits. this was a best case scenario imho.

Yeah +1 ^ the pits is the last place you want to lose control into. They are very lucky there werent cars like you said grided in there or someone could've been seriously injured or killed.

its shitty, and you have to weigh the value of your life against that of many. Hes actually a pretty quick driver in those cars, and has a good head about him. he might have actually made a concise decision. but his target fixation on the only 2 people in the hole damn pit lane makes me question that assumption.

i suppose we will never know. cool in car regardless.
