Maybe everyone should go to next year's Autocar sideways challenge and watch to see how various cars cope. I have to say that the S2000's (OR their drivers?) coped VERY badly. Second only to the Cater/fields in the number of spins.
Would be nice to have an S2000 for the dry and summer and a WRX for the other 8 months of the year.

Wont these guys ever learn??? Rear wheel drive + 200 odd BHP + slightly damp greasy rood = BIFF ......
Strange thing is there was an identical car which had done the same thing about 5 months ago around 100 yards from where this one came to rest ......... Might even be the same person.

That's funny, I got a S2000 with 240bhp + RWD and on damp roads and DIDN'T crash. Maybe I don't drive it right? I saw a few FWD cars crashed though! As well as a TVR! Will THEY ever learn?

A good mate of ADP's and mine had a Tuscan from new, and just before he got rid of it (to get a 996 Turbo...) it was back at TVR for 4 months. Needless to say he wasn't impressed. It also shagged up numerous times during his time with it.
I think TVR need to sort themselves out if they're going to be taken seriously.
Have you ever heard anyone say 'I'd love a TVR' without adding 'but...'?
Thought not.
Still, i'd lop off my left leg to get a T350C.
But....

Shame to see a nice car trashed though eh?
A caveat: AWD>high speed>damp corner>brutally lifting throttle=same result.

Ouch, that looks painful
On my old route to work there was a right hand bend that went over a crest & off camber, every winter you could guarantee a minimum of 5 BMWs would end up backwards in the field on the outside of the bend. Usually they were reps who had just traded up
