ROFL - how did I JUST find this thread? Probably like how it took AK forever to find the original thread :-p

I DEFINITELY took that corner much faster than I had ALL of my other sessions, I can promise you that. I didnt apex the initial left hand turn far enough, and I cut too far in on the next right. Every other session I was flying through there compared to everyone else, so I felt I had a very good handle on it. Obviously, I let it get to me and I tried it a bit hotter than usual. Unfortunately, a "bit" ended up being more like a mouthful I couldn't handle heh.

BTW, you all arent the only ones who are thinking I should have gone left at that point, but I honestly think it came back to the right into the guardrail because I didn't sense the oversteer quickly enough to countersteer. If I did, It probably would have flipped around.

I should have the car back in a day or two - shops taking its time on repairs, mainly due to holiday-time shipping issues, and Im ok with that.

Oh, cant remember who said it, but Im not particularly scared of an incident like this...it helps having a dedicated DD and truck to tow the car to the event and back
