Yea, the driver was dumb. Not as dumb though as that autox layout. Very dangerous with very little room for error. If I showed up to a course like that, my car would not be racing. Stupid.

wow, youd think from the first time the guy would take it easy... then the 2nd he would be scared to give it gas at alll... but then by the 5th im just wondering why the track officals didnt pull him.

Look at how jittery and jerky he is on the wheel too... Forget acceleration and brakes if he was a little (well, a lot) smoother with the steering wheel he'd be just fine, well at least much better...

No doubt. Or at least realize he can't mash the throttle mid turn.

Seems like those are runs from different events. I still say that first clip with the narrow road is an accident waiting to happen.

I thought so at first, but it looks like a sequence from one day (note the time stamp on the video).
