Is that the corner where that Astra VXR destroyed the barrier?

Outraging public decency in 5... 4...

Jesus wept. Proper Darwin-esque driving right there.

That corner is the focus of all of these 'ring crash vids, looks horrible for all kinds of cars

It's appalling, but you just can't help yourself and before you know it you've finished the video and reposted it on another forum.

IMO its not too bad, it just happens to come after a fairly fast straight and is pretty blind/tight unlike the corner before.

Adenauer forst, now that is an amusing corner to watch.

I wasn't entirely sure what the term "tankslapper" meant, so I looked it up. I knew it was something to do with instability on a bike, but I wasn't sure of the details. I found this as an example:

Good grief, that must have been frightening. Good job on controlling it rather than panicking.

Saw that M5 hero driving video last night, it reminded me of GTA!

If only you could drift like that in GTA 4...!

Unless you can without heavy modding?

Maccy · 16 Jan 2013 at 09:01

Of course you can, find the right car and go for it

You aren't allowed to stop on a race track.

They have paramedics on standby.

Drivers are not supposed to stop on the ring. They have medical teams on standby who have like proper training and stuff. :rolleyes:

How do they know the crash has happened? Shirley you'd park up and slow people down from behind the armco?

No stopping on the 'ring, call the number they provide you with to inform the relevant people of where the crash is. Obiously if it looks very very serious or oil down then pull up ahead and off the "racing" line, but im guessing the guys in this video would have seen the driver/passengers in this car either consious or exiting the vehicle hence driving on.
