All I can say is "FUCK"

Scared the crap out of me with power poles and a dirt embankment coming up real fast. The miracle is that I did not hit anything at all.

That would have been rather sphincter-clenching stuff.

Reminds me of this:

Looked like rear brake lockup?

Maybe compression lockup, sounded like you were changing down gears?

My Theory

From the vid looks like the Sussy was way too hard and bumpy for that "down hill" event

also at That straight section of Phill's, the surface is so rough as fk!
Looks like your car was hopping through the bad patch and at the moment your brake, your rear lift off. then its upset your car balance.

Your lucky dude! glad you walk away from it.

'pinched the rear brake over the bumps' would be my guess.

i didnt see the cones first time, so i assumed you were not on the brakes when you lost it.

Have you removed your seat from your clenched butt-cheeks yet?

No marks on the undies (I was surprised), the next run I did was only 0.064 secs slower than my fastest time of the day. So backed it up pretty good.

Luke - So am I, I thought it was going to roll and Serge (Photographer) said he thought it was going to go over. I think it is time to start thinking about the roll cage.

+1 for cage. That could have been so much worse so easily.

There is a vid in the first post. Try opening it as a quote and it should show you the link.

Definitely go cage, and just hope you'll never need it.
