I hate seeing old cars getting smashed, don't care about new cars though.

he slammed on the brakes, pretty obvious that he had no control.
2:24 was funny, going really slow and just seemed to drive into the cliff.

Germans have got it right when it comes to hillclimbs and sprints,
I spent a weekend watching the berg cup the other year,
The amount of events they have puts us to shame.

It's as if the track's slippy the way that people are going off.

GTR looked strange for me, not sure how much grip it has but it does look like if he got off the brakes and steered the car would have sorted it out for him.
2.24 looked like mechanical failure, control arm or something, or he fell asleep at the wheel.

I'd say even holding the brakes, the abs and other systems would of meant he could of got around the corner. Although this is all well saying this after, I would say in the heat of the moment, we might all make the same mistake.

Its like the many people crashing as a result of steering in to it. There's a few which if they'd just left it to spin they wouldn't have hit anything but they catch it and it goes back the other way and does more damage.
Very easy to comment on, not easy to get right in the car.

Pretty cool vid - some very nice cars there. Some of the drivers seemed to barely be in control in a lot of the clips though

Having seen 90percent of the cars in real life, on the hill,
They all give it 150percent effort,
no holding back for these boys, even in the damp on full slicks,
And most are nice blokes, chatting to them in broken english walking round the "pits"
