You're probably entering the bends too fast or getting the power on too early. It's all down to driver technique.

i`m pretty sure he had to stop to pick up his camera afterwards anyway, so maybe the fastest line was not quite the done thing in this case

Nice pics there. Dont think i would dream of doing that with mine though.
Think it would go something like this... Turn in, get back end, out drift it slightly then hear the stone chips and think of my paint, then see the tree when its too late as its about to hit the passenger side, then the almightly bang as I hit the tree!!!
Get some vids up

but still the pics show understeer with a little power drift on the exit, if your doing it for the camera then do it properly and have the backend waving out before you clip the apex, not once your past it and on the exit
