Gonna have to get that boy some driven lessons, I dont think he gave The Ironworks chassis or those Michelin's a fighting chance. Sucks that they kicked him off the track...I did'nt know the autocross was such a serious event.

Guys like that are why memberships exist, so you can yank them. This isn't formula drift, this is autocross, and assholes like that make it harder for the regular folks to get insurance and take up a ton of time while course workers reset the course.

Why call him an asshole?? Do you know him personally?? This guy is probably one of the top 10 tallented car builders in the US!!! Have you ever thought that maybe he's not the caliber of driver that you are?? I'm pretty sure this was his first time ever at a Goodguys autocross. He has never had any driving lessons other than drifting a damned old pick-up truck on a dirt road. Cut the man some slack he was just blowin off some steam after several months of thrashing to get this car done to deliver it to it's owner.

Fair enough, ill downgrade it to jackass, because only a jackass would do something like that. He had no semblance of control and was a danger to himself and others.

I've spectated at a few events, never autocrossed. Take it for what it's worth. It seems the track is kept pretty small and tight. Kinda regulates how much momentum you can build up. Strategically placed barricades here and there but mostly just fence and a lot of folks standing up against it. Seems a bad place to "do your own thing". Regardless of talent or intentions, that was really poor judgement.
