What a ****, just goes to show that if you can't drive then it doesn't matter what car you are sat in.

Just before he finally bins it he almost loses it. At that point common sense really should have kicked in and back off. Probably didn't want to lose face in front of the EVO driver.

Well he ended up doing exactly that or even worse, as above common sense should have made him back off

doesnt really matter what car his in if his a tool at driving, one of the comments to video states he would have been better of with a suzuki swift

Totally out of control, hopefully he can't afford another one and sticks to a push bike.

A friend at work showed me this yesterday and my comments echoed exactly whats been said above; you could see he was going to crash two or three corners before he lost it.

You know when you're reaching the limit of your driving talent; the guy was an idiot to keep pushing until the inevitable happened. As +Doc+ says, lets hope he can't afford a replacement.

You could see him fish tailing for about 3 corners before he stacked it, I would have taken the hint after the first time and slowed down.
Having said that my desire to be a youtube hero isnt that strong. Still nice sounding Evo!!!

Can't believe he carried on pushing it over the edge, you could see he was on the grip limit, yet he carries on pushing, on a public road too. Deserved to cream it in my eyes.......

The GTR looked to be suffering from lots of understeer if you ask me. Just too big and heavy for that road.

Agreed, needed a good VTA dump valve..

I thought those GTR's were meant to be nearly impossible to crash?

Nothing is impossible to crash. You cannot defy the Laws of Physics. Too much speed coupled with a heavy mass and not enough grip and you're in trouble no matter how fancy the AWD system is.
