Glad he is ok but he should have let off well before he crossed over the line. Very lucky the the guy in the left lane bogged off the line or that would have been a double for sure. A tad aggressive eh.

i agree on the aggressive bit, one thing i first thought of is that he is under pressure to return the rx3 worlds fastest title, since it got taken a few days ago in PR , and pac and the PR guys have had a good run for record chasing in the last few months , so maybe it was a all out assault on the tittle again .
But that's just my thoughts so don't get antsy pantsy anyone

Good to hear that he walked away. It looks like the drivers tire shakes hard at 1:04. Looking forward to seeing it rebuilt for Summer 2011.
