Epic save: Mustang GT500 almost CRASH at Hockenheimring
You are doing a track day in your favorite car.
You arrive at the hairpin after a long long acceleration but with no brakes.
What do you do?
There are two theories to arguing with women. Neither one works

He is lucky there wasn't a curb. He would've rolled.

He was doing probably 120+ miles/h. Originally Posted by Ingeniator

Not saying he pulled the wrong move. Just that he is lucky the curbing ended. That is why I like cages also though. Originally Posted by DavidV

He did mostly get lucky though, I would say the track designers did a good job of having a large paved runout area on the outside of that turn...if it had been grass he wouldn't have stopped and if it was gravel he would have rolled or like Ingeniator said could have had a curb.
Nothing else the driver could have done though except prepare the car better for an extended track run.
