Might be BEFORE you cross the centerline, this is from the old Fremont Dragstrip. Make sure and watch till the end.The driver is very lucky to say the least!

Sounds like his throttle got stuck???
The engine didnt seem to stop revvving until the car turned over on its roof!

Watch and listen, its a great example of poor driving and car construction. He gets back on it AFTER he has changed lanes and BEFORE he has complete control back.

so i hadnt seen this before, i watched it the first time and was thought, "wow, that guy out near the guardrail was lucky he didnt get hit", i rewond it to watch as the car came at him to see him dive for cover, and then i realized, "hmmm, there is no guy out by the guardrail as the car approaches..."
i also like how when he stands up, his body movements (arms) look exactly like hes saying a bunch of curse words.

Looks like in this case it was almost better he got thrown out that soon.

Have you ever seen this kind of crash with a street mounted car...
I think it was too light and no safety...

It sounds like it was a stick. Mr. He-Man Macho guy sure impressed us.
He's still on the loud pedal when he crosses the centerline!!
