Epic crash, EVO creams a G35, NSX and almost the driver.

The most rearted gridding ever

From the the grid.

From 2 cars behind.

The NSX driver is lucky to be alive.

Why the hell would they line up the cars so close to the race track and why was the nsx driver allowed to be out his car while on the grid.

Poor NSX

Terrible location, but it's ridiculous that the drivers were allowed to be outside the cars. Geez...

Why would they setup the grid right next to a turn like that without any sort of wall to protect them? How are people permitted to leave their cars?

At all the clubs I've driven at they specifically tell you to never leave your car unless it is on fire and the startup grid is behind a protective wall at the end of a straight.

What driving club is this?

For real.

But all I heard was "Tight, tight, tight.....there you go." As least her dialogue was correct for a woman.

The Evo driver gets out of the car after the crash and looks at the back of the vehicle before thinking to check with the other car.

Why the fuck do they grid that close to the track?? whoever was running that event should be liable. That is about the dumbest place to grid the cars.

Wow, that whole scene is retarded. The organizers should be permanentlyy banned from racetracks worldwide.

As should some of you boys hating on female instructors. Most could kick your butts on track, and you know it.
