Hey guys, some of you may have already seen this as it happened back in early/mid August, but I am assuming most of you have not seen this. This was among the worst I have seen on the track. Just a friendly reminder to be safe out there ;)

I think he took the wrong line. It should give him more exit speed though.

??? If you read the thread it explains that he had brake failure. There is a video that shows his telemetry that confirms this aswell.

He clipped the last fence so he was disqualified. Twas the best launch of the day though.

It would have been a 9.5, but they adopted Formula D rules about touching fences. So he got a 0.
