Now how about some more slippin' and slidin'. Can you spot the proper use of BFI?

George, in all frankness, that original poster was not swayed & will not be swayed by know-nothings like you and me. He is CLEARLY much more knowledgeable about what to do than anyone here or at the events you and I instruct, even if the way-off-base "advice" he regularly dispenses can get people hurt or killed.

It's like you guys always leave out the most important step.

As an instructor it is very important to be ready when a student comes into a corner too hot. We usually know before the student. If it is a safe place to spin or go off let the student learn. If it is a bad location on the track for an off then you should have told the student on the warm up lap not to push it here.
Even the wealthest student would prefer to take their car home in one piece.
