Who pays for that? Sad.
Students are liable up to a certain dollar amount which begins at somewhere between $3000-$5000 and increases if you become a habitual wrecker.

I think that for the 3 day school the limit of liability is $2G, I think it goes up for the series though

Can you say "understeer"?

Notice how he locked up the front right wheel on one of the previous corners. He did the same thing at the end of the video on drove straight into the tires. All he needed to do was get off the brakes a little and turn the car. I guess hindsight is 20/20...

He is also holding the wheel wrong. Putting your hands on the top of the wheel (hanging on it) causes you to pull on the steering which -tells- the car what to do, one should only -ask- a car to do something.....

...your right though, and its funny as it was one of the first things that caught my eye about the majority of the in-car skippy vids you find on youtube. Even guys in the race series holding it way at the top with one hand and jerking the sh&t out of the car

Good point. Having never driven one of those cars before, I wasn't sure if there is enough room to hold the wheel in the more traditional 9/3 or 10/2 position.

It's really nice to be able to see what your front tires are doing.
