To me it looks like lift off oversteer, it can happen at high speeds with a WRX, here exassrbated in the wet. I remember one of the WRX club member talking about, he almost got into a seriuos accident because he never encountered it with a WRX and lift off oversteer in a AWD seems conuter intuative.

@Veteq, what did u total anyway?
I agree, thats what it looked like to me too. He could have caught it though he was late to steer into it.
I got into a few close shaves when i used to drive a landrover, even that would lift off oversteer quite profoundly! And that was a bit of a bugger to catch! :shock:

If its a civic it must be turbo'd then cus its got a turbo timer on the dash. It doesnt sound like a civic engine to me either. It does have the sound of a flat 4 with an equal length manifold. But as has been said there is no bonnet scoop visible.
Anyone have some definative info on this crash?
