Anyone see this Camaro Wreck

I guess it was one of those challenge races where they invite spectators to run the oval in their street cars.

This guy loses it rather quickly

I hope it was paid for because insurance does not cover this stuff.

They used to run this at the now defunct Mosport half mile oval.

Some turkey showed up with a brand new at the time WS6 TA and totaled it it was later found out to be stolen

I bet he needed new shorts when he got out. I saw this one a few days ago. I’ve done some non competitive oval driving in my Camaro. I don’t think I’d do this kind of event unless the car was modded for it. These cars are known to understeer from the factory and that’s not what you want at all on an oval.

Yep, Read your auto insurance policy. Possibly no coverage while using your
car while racing or using it for business. Policies vary, check yours.

Yes, i know mine doesnt cover it. My vehicle policies just renewed a few days ago and I had to go thru to confirm a bunch of stuff and it says "YOU WILL NOT BE COVERED IF DRAG RACING, OR IN/ON ANY SORT OF COMPETIVE EVENT."
They had it listed in all caps and bold print, so it seemed like they meant what they said...lol

That was pretty crazy. My best guess is he got in hot, understeered, and just didn't abort in time. the higher he went up the track the worse traction got.
