it would have been nice if they actually showed another outside view of the car flipping, other than just the dust in the air off in the distance

WhiteCastle is a glorious beacon of light

this had nothing to do with the lack of skill of the driver. It was mechanical error. Okay this is what I believed happen, the first thud was the axle straining, the secound fallowing thud was the axle basically giving way. You can literlly hear the snap and at that moment he seems to loose control.
I know this becuase I seen it happen.... but never seena guy role his car over it.
To trully judge what happen need better angle. This is my best guess!

"Just minutes after its launch to make its first run at the Silver State Classic, Inada-san reportedly reached 201 mph before a tire blew, causing the 350Z to flip seven times, crashing to a screeching halt, mangled like a junkyard beater."

That must have sucked.
my step father rolled his 85 Celica really bad and he just crawled out but the car was trashed, he fliped it on a turn at like 110 mph and he just put a new engine in it. he was racing some guy in a nissan 300zx.

I read about this in SuperStreet... they just finished shooting the car for an article hours before the run... from what i read.. it said that a tire blew and caused the car to lose control at around 201mph. Whats amazing is that the driver walked away... they said that he shoulda been dead. check out SuperStreet Feb04 issue for more info.
