His car avoided the walls, but I'm pretty sure he had to clean sh*t off his seats.

AWD dosen't mean you still can't loose traction. Just means when you do everything happens quicker with the other wheels trying to pull you another direction and put you in the wall. Looks like a video of when cars attack lol.

Seems to make sense, I would have enjoyed it more if he did hit the wall.

I was thinking that right after I posted. Now you jinxed me. Not hating on the GTR at all just would have made the video a little more interesting.

I'm surprised because it's not just AWD but the GT-R has some advanced electronics to control traction on each wheel independently which is why they cling so well. This has to have issues or the TC is off completely. That track looks slippery like an ice rink.

Water on the track with vdc off. Thus one wheel loses traction and **** happens.

Both cars were trapping 123. So it's not a power issue. Other forums stated track was wet.

A spin is supposed to be louder than that, this I know

It looks like his front broke loose on him if you watch carefully, he started pulling left, over corrected, and the s**t hit the fan at that point. Damn good/lucky recovery skills!!!!!!!

It looks like the rear wheels broke loos and he took his foot off the gas then it snapped... that's my guess.

the doc is right....

we were there, I would have never ran my car under those conditions. It was sprinkling off and of during one point, and there was a massive cross wind at times.

That shouldn't do any thing but slow you done a little but once you floor it the A\C will turn off to give the car the max power.

A/c will produce condensation which will drip on the track making it unsafe.

ya but it drips in the middle not on the tires... watch the video and you can hear the rpm rise then the car starts to brake loose then you hear him take his foot off the gas.
