Unless you're a Pro in a championship race with millions of dollars on the line, why don't guys just back off on a bad pass?
Much better to loose a race and save the car, or even a life, than to push a bad position and think you can hero your way outta it. Especially when the only thing on the line is a plastic trophy and a few hundred bucks.
although, i would have lifted...that there is grudge racing guys....big money betting usually on the line for races like that.... no trophy or sportsman type purse. a lot of those races are 5k and more
There was big $$$ on dat race.
Very few grudge racers let off,
It's all in or Nada...

He should have LET OFF and taken the loss.

Looks to me that he NEVER lifted-even when it was crashing. Maybe the throttle stuck but he was under power when he shot across the track and vaulted over the guard rail.

It was definately IMO under power when it shot across the track. But it seemed to me it was off when he hit the wall, but back on after bounced off of it. Maybe he hit the gas by mistake, or the impact wedged it back on somehow.
