Ok,
I got an email from James, driver of the Takata Time Attack Sti that the footage of the Ptuning tC crashing in the carousel at summit points is now up on youtube.

I've explained it to many people, and from what i remember i got greedy and kept my foot in it WAY to long. I was carrying way to much speed and once I hit the brakes it was all over, and i was going for a ride. Now that I look at it, i realize how sloppy my driving was and i wonder if i could have saved the car. Once i was in the bowl, it was over, with the speed i was going, it launched me straight out, into the grass. Since the nice Toyo r888's have no traction in the grass I could not stop before the wall.
I know the guys at PTuning are running around the clock to get the car ready for VIR, but we are going to need a lot of luck to get V3.0 out in time.
Thanks everyone for you support, it means the world to us!
