Default Car in compromising position

Thought I'd share a pic from turn 5 at Thunderhill. My friend was taking pics of me on track. He took his last picture when I tapped him on the shoulder to see how he was doing. It wasn't my run group. Then a bunch of emergency vehicles started deploying. Wondering what's up, we see a car rolled at 5 (3 times). "I just took a picture of that car(??)". Low and behold....



If you paid me to do this, I'm not sure I could pull this off

Gerbil Racer- sounds like Adam Lambert's type of car.

Remind me not to track a Civic. It must be the car.
He had a passenger along for the ride too.

Looks like the wind didn't help things either

Nothing with the wind will do that to you there. (North wind is predominate in that area of the Central Valley, that's coming from the E/SE.)

Basically that's just a screwup, probably from the initial turn in.
