why would the SR save him? thats pretty much saying an s2000 is awesome off the line.

SR is torqueless and he wasn’t even in boost or probably fell below it and caught grip. its so hard to see with that shitty camera.

there you go gentlemen, KA-T \> SR

shit, shouldn’t have said that. now the KATS vs the SR topic

ah well.

vlad, i see your call, and i raise you!!! lol :

ok yes he was in boost, but the rest of what of what you said i 1/2 agree

yes he didnt straighten out fast enuff is one reason, but he also fell outta boost after cause it seems like he let off the throttle too much resulting him falling out of boost which caught grip, and with that lack of countersteer, he turned to the left side.

discuss.
