Adrenaline filled moment

The S should run -ve camber, not +ve. Easy mistake to make.
Gritty,
booting it with the car destabilised by a curve and with the wheels extended (RWS reduces toe-in like that) is a classic way to spin an S2000. Or flip it, as some have found.
You need to think what that RWS is doing at all times. Toe-in increases under compression & decreases under extension.
There is a small bridge on the A507 that gives one a zero-gravity moment, if taken above 110. But it is crucial to hit it with the wheel (and car) straight.

Love it when something is laid on a plate. Enjoyed clicking through those vids posted by Bada, it has set me up for the day.
I like the soap operaish qualities of this forum. Suddenly a character, (GrittyShaker) comes to the fore and you wonder what they are going to do next. I know that he has posted about his youth and inexperience on another thread and luckily for him a spot of practice was suggested there also. Glad his spin served only as entertainment for us and did not end in tears for him.
Also, I had hoped never to see that sad pic of Horza's ever again.

This is a vid of a(fwd) Integra losing it in similar fashion. Just slightly juanty on take off results in a pretty instant spin on landing.
Careful Now...
Unfortuately, both occupants died in this one. Makes you think...
