Glad no one was killed; more glad I wasn't on the same road as you. Also I doubt there is anyone who thinks the Evo isn't a safe car. It has a Euro NCAP 5 star rating. Shame the same can't be said of some of its drivers.

Damn that is rough. I've met someone a few times in Rapid who is in the military and drives a black Evo... Glad everyone is OK

Since your bro is ok, proceed to smack him upside the back of the head. Karma bit him square in the *** on this and it could have been much worse.

I am absolutely amazed that anything/one survived that... those look like falken ze-912 tires which are by no means a good performance tire... Don't skimp on your tires guys, especially if you are going to be doing spirited driving, the grip makes the difference.

Now was this with ASC on or off? Curious. I'm wondering if having all the electronics on would have prevented this.

When you go into a corner above the speed that your vehicle can handle, the ASC can't do anything for you, if anything it may make it worse. If you enter the turn at reasonable speeds then mash the gas pedal, thats where the ASC will save you.

I believe the correct terminology is "Because Racecar"
