That may very well be true, but with the decline of critical thinking ability of the general population I'm really not sure if Sugar is serious.

Add to that, anyone who has instructed for a bit has run into real life people at the track who are very similar in terms of reasoning ability and attitude. This brings us back to the Flat-Out videos - stereotypes exist for a reason.

Whoo-hoo! Page 16!

The only fault of the car indeed is how A-pillars folded. Poor rollover protection is a Corvette's hallmark, and very visible here. The occupants were lucky to walk away from it.

OP title says "Pro". Pro in what? Trolling? I suggest changing to "Resident Idiot".

I hate the labels RL started using recently. They didn't think that through very far. Labeling random people as "Instructor" based on nothing but their post count, wow, what could possibly go wrong? And at the same time, what could possibly be more copacetic with the current zeitgeist, where everyone is a world-class statesman, virologist, economist, and racing driver in their own mind.

i feel bad for this guy. regardless of whether its his fault (which it almost definitely is), losing your car at the track is a sad experience.
