This in-car video from March of last year during an ASRA race group practice session by Paul Bonham (Porsche 944 running in SCCA ITE and currently ranked 1st of ten cars in class) starts on the front straight at PIR. The next time he comes down the front straight it is at 120mph going backwards!!! Paul exited the NASCAR Turn 4 high and the rear end steps out on him. He over corrects and the car whips around on him. The amazing thing is that the spin continues and it is amazing to see how close the nose of the car comes to the inside wall. He does not make contact with any barriers and continues around the track and back to the pits. Damage: 2 flat spotted tires (at opposite corners of the car), his gas cap came off?? and the outer edge of the passenger side mirror was scrapped!!! This file is fairly large at 19.5MB so you may want to "save" it and play it after it downloads all the way. http://www.microworks.net/dave/images/video/944SpinPIR.mpg |
