so wait, did the driver die? it seemed as if he died because they show a girl carrying two baggages.
that evo is very nice and awesome. He was passing all the cars, but like someone said, the driver got too cocky.

He was a decent drive he just got too hot on that corner.

I saw this post when I had my Evo. The guy was fine. They evo flipped over quite a bit. Any car would crumble like that.

Titliest no offense, we're friends and all, but you like to take the Evo down below the STi in every way possible. The guy was speeding and flipped a car 3 times at a high rate of speed, and still walked away. Not bad in my book.

The car is not a "piece of poopie". I don't care how gently you put it. That car was the Evo 8, with JDM tailights as someone else said earlier. The original post on this video also talked about how the driver was ok and was still planning on a new evo shortly after. He was out handling a Lotus in his poopoie car, and out accelerating that porche.

Good driver with poor judegement in one turn. Any car would end up like that.

Joe, In no way was I referencing this to or comparing it to an STi. I don't know where you get that. I think your reading into my post the wrong way. An as far as the label goes.....I think anyone would say its a piece of poopie....lol....after it finishes its stunt like that one did. The car isn't even worth fixing. If I wanted to condescend on EVO's I would have labaled it different.....not that it didn't cross my mind. . If it were a STi video I would have still posted it. How's the weather been in NH, snowing here.

What's the name of that acoustic song played after the guy flipped his car? It sounds something like Radiohead, but I can't tell. Anyone know???

Oh yea, and it sucks that car had to die.

Prime example on how not to drive at an open track event.... And I'm not even talking about the crash, but rather how he Ignors the other cars lines and cuts them off (Nearly hitting an Elise) Punk Got what he deserved.

^I didnt realize it was an open track event, I thought it was a test run or something. Now that I watch it again, yea he was being an ***, ive never been open tracking, but I know you wouldnt drive like that with other drivers around...

it was a race track
he was racing
be it for personal best or what not.
IMO i don't think he was being an ***.
Just hauling ***.
I wouldn't pay to be on a track if I had to follow the leader.
If I wanted to drive like that I'll hop on an open city street, freeway or highway.

the end where he crash was freaky I
did expect him to to do a few rolos
