PCA disaster race at Sonoma

[@wez492]

Whoa, Was there fluid on the track ? The attitude of the cars in that particular spot, glad everyone is ok , things went bad very quick.

[@dillonalexander6689]

Was going to ask the same question.

[@AutomaticProductions]

No fluid, lots of people crash there

[@gavinvalentino6002]

It was a sudden lack of talent for both.

[@danielshofner729]

Glad you guys all made it out ok! Last thing you want to hear on your radio. Great racing this weekend.

[@TheEvoXMR]

Thanks, man. Great meeting you guys over the weekend. Good luck with the rest of the season!

[@danielshofner729]

@@TheEvoXMR Thank you! It was great meeting you guys as well.

[@rcsandgokarts1096]

So was there oil on the track or did the guy in front lock up?

[@CurboroughSprinter]

I’ve done that in karting in the rain. Guy in front spins and it makes you get out of shape as you’re on the limit but simultaneously trying to avoid a collision. One of those things unfortunately. Good that nobody hit you coming through afterwards at least. Still, it looked expensive.

[@ukemike1]

This is why I am so glad that Lemons uses the Bus Stop.

[@aventarikevin121]

Hey buddy funny seeing you here! :)

[@creativepondsandgard]

That turn is the most difficult and fast on the track, glad everyone's ok, wild, I don't blame you SM is better ,mixed makes it more difficult

[@Rypper72]

Cripes Joe! Glad you’re ok, the blue car’s aerial was crazy. Hadn’t checked your feed in a while, glad I did. Is there no SPB only racing or is it only mixed?

[@forumshawaii]

That’s a really tough turn. You’re carrying a lot of speed. I lost it in the same turn in the rain. I was lucky enough not to hit anything.

[@ZOANOM]

Holy shit, I have that video from just behind you in the #5 Spec911 car. What a mess. Glad you're ok.

[@TheEvoXMR]

Thanks! Glad you were able to avoid us! Do you have link to your video I can see?

[@andypowell4702]

Love this track but I think the nascar layout is more fun. Nascar turn 4 coming down the hill and throwing the right side over the curb and swinging way out by the wall is epic.

[@jonybtw]

is it the braking that eases the rear or is it lift-off oversteer?

[@benh283]

Looks like you were going to save it but couldn't avoid the guy in front who spun. Good effort.

[@sbelles]

I know this is old but for reference, I had 102 starts in PCA SPB since 2012 with only one minor incident where another car dented my fender and knocked my toe out so it hasn't always been that crashy. At least here on the east coast. It does seem like it's gotten worse in the past couple of years though.

[@mikekorn6968]

First...not your fault you did great avoiding & counter steering & got caught up from behind.... imho

[@NormalGuy]

Was that just three cases of lift-off oversteer?

[@sportbikejesus6297]

That’s what it looked like to me. Don’t know what happened to the first car but the OP lifted when he saw the car in front start to spin. Then it dominoed to the car behind him too.

[@lc3763]

Turn 10 is a fast one, a little left foot braking to settle nose and right back on gas.

[@BenFreedmanRacing]

Holy crap

[@geoffmcnew5863]

That's the scariest corner..and worse in a rear-engine car...'throttle maintenance"

[@augustortiz]

Holy cow. Blue car got absolutely wrecked. Did the red car hit some oil on the track that caused it too lose traction like that?

[@TheEvoXMR]

No, car in front of red entered slower than expected. Red entered full tilt and had to lift, which made him go sideways. I had to do the same, and so the did the guy behind me. Domino effect…

[@maxlytvyn1797]

OMG, hope everyone is ok!

[@TheEvoXMR]

Hey Max, everyone is fine, thanks. Unfortunately I’m done with SPB. Will stick with SM.

[@TheEvoXMR]

@Austin Varco I don’t like mixed class racing. The fast slow cars clash with slow fast cars and is a recipe for disaster. I stopped doing mixed class with my SM for the same reason.

[@EugVR6]

6 cylinder symphony 👌🏼

[@Aaron-ne7co]

That's a bummer! Looks like the car it front of the red car went wide, maybe driving with his mirrors and turned in late.

[@scottnoble8063]

Silver driver had to right to any lane, including allowing room for red car. Red car didnt use curbing prior to next apex and perhaps forced a tighter turn than normal there as well. SPBs become unbalanced fairly easily and guessing brake pitched car to nose and loosened rear end.

[@jp_r00512]

Damn...

[@tonyhagar9740]

Oh Dear!

[@DarylCook63]

It only takes one…to ruin it for everyone else 🤦‍♂️ (my new motto)

[@PorscheCrazy00]

Sorry Joe …glad you’re alright 🙏

[@AutomaticProductions]

Id never go out with a dirty dash.

[@silverbullitt850]

Yeah, it absolutely looks like doodoo

[@Mash333]

Purchasing a Porsch equals being mario andruffi

[@Formaldehydex]

PCA should show this video at every new driver meeting to discourage most people from competing. I can say this after surviving 7 PCA club races myself after driving to each one. What was I thinking?

[@jahanshahjowharchi3651]

Crap..... you did nothing wrong. only bad luck on your part

[@TheMikeguy7776]

Calling it a disaster seems extreme

[@gavinvalentino6002]

What are the odds of two Porsche drivers running out of talent at the exact same time? (don't answer)

[@JohnSmith-kk4ds]

All three slid out to the outside looks like fluid on the track of some sort
