Richard Losse told a mutual friend of ours that he thought he was out of the section that he wad been warned about. He open up the car and then realized that he hadn't quite passed through the rolling hills yet and was in the process of slowing things down when the front end, "got light." From there the car went airborn and now you see the mess left over.
so it has more to do with the particular vector of the car, and the aerodynamics more than anything else
