    helmet, harness, low seating position and not a lot of body movement permitted are contributing factor to a mis-judged curb.

    I mean the portion of the wall that is curb level?

    If you have sat in a race car you will understand what I am trying to say

    Wow. This driver needs to go to beginners driving (not even racing) class again. Doesn't know the difference between brake and gas pedal.

    Looks like he hit the gas instead of brakes when it got close to the wall. Lol

    I think he tried to break the back end loose to pivot the front around and keep going, otherwise he would need to stop and back up to miss the wall....oops.

    I think it's cool that you're giving the driver the benefit of the doubt, it really looks to me that the driver was very inexperienced and even more nervous. Yes absolutely, a driving suit, helmet and belts are confining (and hot), but after spending a few minutes with them you do get used to the environment.

    Makes sense. Let's give the driver the benefit of the doubt.

    Car malfunction? Perhaps the driver prevented a complete disaster by hitting the wall that slowly.
