Something that I noticed, as the videos goes on, there are more and more people assisting. I think they must have had a rule where once you flip, you must assist the next 6 cars. By the end, there would have been something like 36 people to assist each car. :lol: :lol: :lol:

The photographer in the corner at 2:12 caught my attention -- signals for help when the Beetle rolls, then turns the other way for next picture. Apparently it's not a big enough deal to help out. :roll:

What about the driving skills on the guy in the blue squareback at 1:27. He is up on 2 wheels and still makes the turn, that was good driving.

I was thinking the exact same thing, nice save dude!

I think you hit the nail on the head...the first thing I wondered was if this was the first trip around?

Who the hell drives balls out around a track the first time? A guy who doesn't have the brains to realize that he will wreck...

The dude in the 'vert, while driving like an asshole, did manage to make the turn and not kill everyone in his car...same for the Squareback driver.

The newer videos of people (now) going to the same track and flipping show similar behavior...they're just bigger vehicles with more shit in them to come out when they roll.

Another car I didn't see roll over was the Mercury Capri. A few there, but none on the top (I think).
