Hope this wasn't any of you!  Best wishes for a speedy recovery regardless.

Not me...  I have a Saffron Yellow Elise just like the one in the video but it's not me.  Too bad, I sure hope that everyone is ok and this video is just another good reminder that as tempting as it is to push our cars on twisty roads we need to be careful and never engage in competitive races on open roads.  I really hope everyone is ok.

There’s a time and a place...  Race at the track, drive “con vivace” in the canyons.  The guy driving the Lotus screwed up incredibly badly, at least the guy in the Porsche kept the back end where it belongs.  Over corrected?  He sounds like the kind of guy who thinks he can buy skill. “What’s drop throttle oversteer?”  When a guy like that buys a high performance car he just screws up at a higher speed.  I’ve seen it on the racetrack, I’ve seen it on the street.  Just my 2 cents worth.  Sorry he destroyed a nice car.
