And he needs to not lift in order to wave at the dude who just spun. Sheesh.

I took the 3 day Skippy course there in June. It looks like the guy was off line in the Carousel, so he might not have much experience at RA. My other guess is that he was worried about seeing the video car in his rear view mirror, and went hot into the kink, lifted, and, well, as they say, the rest is history. Still a great save. In a 911, he would have been toast.
I thought the full spin to look backwards at traffic and see where to place the car to avoid traffic was very well done..............................
