another quality display of driving by Nick Hogan

He drives the yellow one. The green one that flipped is driven by an old NASCAR driver Chris Cook.

Isn't that one of the hardest tracks out there for drifting and is that the track where a lot of ppl crash at each year during drifting events

if you watch closely he tries the break the back end loose earlier into the turn but couldnt, therefore he was forced kick the back end out late causing him to lose his "race line" and crash into the wall.

Looked to me like he tried to feint it too late and went wide.

Nick can actually drive good, IMO. I get to watch him every weekend...and I think he does great. He has a BIG issue with choking when it's time to qualify. I also have the same problem. He does awesome all day and then spoads out when it's time for the real deal. He just needs to keep practicing. It sucks that everyone has something to say about him all of the time. I mean I understand why it's just he's a nice kid and a decent driver who is improving. He gets a bad rap because his dad is famous. He handles it quite well and is totally a respectful kid. I enjoy messing around with him at the track.

More reason NOPI Drift is a joke. Seems like there have been more sever accidents with their series then any other. The track set-ups that i have seen almost look like NOPI is purposefully making the tracks on the dangerous side.

the reason he crashed was because he tapped the wall with the rear end and it killed his drift, then thried to keep the run going and thats where he messed up.

and there is a saying in racing "you dont race what you cant afford to push off a cliff"
and im sure he can push vipers off cliffs all day long.

it seems as if he tapped the throttle a little at first because i see him kick it out a little but he straightens out, then he hits it again but harder when hes already off the race line causing him to go wide and hit the wall.

at 43 seconds into the in car vid he CLEARLY taps the wall with his left rear.

if not, then someone tell me why the camera shook and the car snaped back.

Ohhhh, we are talkin about two different videos here, I thought you meant the vid in the first post. I was like, uhhh, yeah, he hit the walll ya think?? :)

Tracy

He hit the wall because he came in too fast. He probably hit the gas to try to get away from the wall. When you are sliding, that's about all you can do....gas and steer.

doesnt look like hes going that fast, looks like he just didnt initiate the drift soon enough

I was talking about Nick's crash on this quote.

The green Viper was also too fast, but he had double initiation. His first initiation was unstable so when he went to initiate again, he went into the wall.
