Viper goes oops.
 
This guy is very lucky to be alive.

There is a special warning at the end for X5Monkey.

Viper crash

It just proves,

American muscle might take the Italian cars in a straight line, but braking and turning is another issue :)

Seriously though, he locked up the rears, (no anti-locks ???) and could have used some trail braking to get around that bend.
Guess he was too busy smiling for the camera..

Good idea hang that turn in the far right lane with zero shoulder and lock the brakes going into the apex......WINNER.

Yeah, that's a perfect example of bad driving. He IS lucky to be alive.

He might be lucky to be alive, but I don't know if the rest of us are lucky. :bustingup Did he even use the brakes there? :dunno:

Looked to me by the tire marks on the street that he hit the brakes at the top of the turn, laws of physics state that this would cause the back end of the car to kick out.....and it did.....go MOPAR DRIVER.

The tire marks on the street are not the same marks left by the Viper are they? Watch it again and look carefully. It almost looks like it was a setup.

seems like lots of vipers crash. combination of bad driving and bad car.

Too much power for the drivers to handle usually. They need to learn to handle such a car before attempting those curves.

If you look right before he fell off, he skid in the sand/dirt. Thats why is rear end went out.....i think.
