That asshat is in about the same position that corvette was when I came around the previous turn. But yes, luckily I was able to keep it on my half of the road.
I just braked late, and ended up trail-braking the rear end loose and into the side of the mountain. The car stayed pointing basically the right direction, just about 5 feet right of where the car should've been.

Here's a rough copy of the video my friend in the STi was running. About 24:30 is where the action starts.

At 22:41 you can see me hugging the very inside of the turn because the black C5 was in my lane (when he appears on video he's crossed back over).
At 22:48 I've already stopped and I come back into frame. Then you can see my happy attitude about the situation as the camera rolls for another minute or two.
