Nice skills.... good there's no damage... ;)

I knew there was a way to make a B5 oversteer.;-)

[RC45]

was the oil on the road or did the car spill the oil?

how come no one else hit the oil?

I am surprised he never took a photo of the oil.

Surprisingly no one has mentioned how Audi's Quattro system might have affected this man's fate

[Pokiou]

thats lucky man ... lol good reaction time also.

[pitfield]

ESP please.

[nikola]

i think he didn`t touch the brake... or else...

[fordgt84]

That audi is only FWD ;-)

pitfield, it doesn't have ESP.

RC45, it's a highway, it's forbidden to stop on the side of the road, you can only stop if something happened. He managed to get away with nothing, has to continue and stop in the next rest park :-)

The only thing surprising me is that he was recording that. I have newer recorded an usual drive on highway, anyone of you have?

I would say an oil puddle big enough to cause that is "something" and is exactly the type of thing you stop for.

How would you like to be the next person coming along and hit that oil puddle and spin into the guard rail and lose half you family.

I am not convinced it was an oil puddle - I mean you dont see everyone else spinning around.

Now I can believe his car might have puked oil onto his own front tyre causing this situation.

If it was a oil puddle - I sure hope he called it in to the highway maintenance authority to be cleaned up.

Not calling it in should be the illegal part :)

CarlZ, he was going to a Track-Day, and started recording at home.

RC45, i agree with that, and it seems that earlier in the morning a car crashed there. Don't know the confirmation of this, maybe T5 can confirm.

The strange things is that he made some corners at higher speed and with wet road and the car didn't lose the rear, there he was going slower and almost dry road.

It's something that we can't get the veredict of what happened :?:

Good job to the driver for keeping his cool and bringing things back under control. A lot of people never bring it back after the first correction. Managing the first two corrections at that speed must've been pretty crazy.
