Default Shiny side up - Videos of GT4 drama

Bored, going through my TPA clips. Came across my offline carrying too much speed. Having a little fun... starting a "bloopers" thread for drama caught on video that resulted in a save without damage. Please only post your videos as the driver, unless you have permission from the driver.

Track: Summit Point Main
Cause: Offline, too much speed.
Effect: Slid off slightly, right rear tire in gravel

This thread won't be as active as "mustangs leaving CnC" thread

Track: starbucks drive thru
Cause: flooring it since there is a crowd with cameras
Effect: video is self explanatory

Your adventure was a result of turning in too early. When passing offline into a corner, always turn in later to a late apex.

Those videos usually result in shiny side upside down or into a tree or a wall or crowd of ppl.

Came in hot and missed the apex by 2-4 feet = running out of track

^^ Nicely done. That's really rough out there. Would seem like a basic turn, but it's high speed and I always feel a bit of trepidation there.

Old one in my M3 at NJMP Lightning. Apexed too early coming over the hill, ran out of room at track-out, and hit the step-up of the start of the track-out curbing. Saw God on the way toward the inside wall. Fun starts at about 1:00.

And one of my faves, also a few years back at NJMP in the M3: Vette blows its motor right in front of me at about 3:05. Go left? Go right? Luckily I guessed left...
