Americans and corners
YouTube - Subaru Impreza WRX Crash
I thought it was only American cars that couldn't take corners but now I'm thinking it may be just Americans.

The comment "not as easy as it looks" is rather funny. If he was driving properly tand there wasn't an obstruction in the lane then there is no reason for him to have hit the rockface on the lefthand side of the road. Guy behind him who was filming seemed to be in control.

No, audi vehicles are superior. The lasers in the vehicle would have been able to tell that it was about to collide into a solid matter, and hence turn on its Advanced audi ESP technology (better than normal ESP) and saved the day.

Audi's are just overpriced Skoda's,but are poorly finished compared to there Czech superiors.My boss had a A4 which we both thought had terrible ergonomics.He got shot of it,and got a Lexus which is superior to the A4 in all aspects.But if people like to waste money on Audi's thats there choice,and fine by me.

lexus = tarted up toyota
Skoda = Stripped down lower quality audi's (only applicable to A3 though
)I know which one I would rather own

to be fair they did seem to be pushing things. Speeds look much slower on film. All of the races do, just look at NASCAR. 200ish MPH. Saying that what about F1? I could go on.

Audilover does that only work on stone as i remember a post on here a few weeks back when a RS4 hit a tree and split in two The lasers in the vehicle would have been able to tell that it was about to collide into a solid matter, and hence turn on its Advanced audi ESP technology (better than normal ESP) and hit the object full on.
