Do bear in mind he was doing 130 in to it, you don't have to drive that fast if you don't want to.

Yeh I appreciate speed was a contributing factor too. It's the whole stacking the car thing (and repair bills for it and the track) that concern me

not really its more you are carrying lots of speed from flugplatz, the corner looks fast but then aremburg appears so you lift off and brake, then whoops lift off oversteer

On entry it does, the turn in is just over the crest. Youve got to lose all your speed in a straight line and keep the power on throughout the bend. Its an unforgiving corner as some have found out!

Just shows what an unsettled car the S2000 is - but he was asking for it at 130+ surely

Not really as you can see from other videos it happens alot even with FWD cars.

Its not the car, he turns in too quick. If he shook more speed off in a straight line, he could power through the corner and transfer more weight to the back end and balance it out.

If you listen to the vid you can hear that hes still decelerating as he turns in
