Who knows what his foot was doing once the slide started? He didn't brake. I'm no expert with 911 dynamics but I think if he had of floored it he may have driven out of it. As was the pendulum action beat him as well as a very limited amount of space. PERFECT example of why you don't want to be flitting around the edge of the friction circle with other objects and people around. Can anyone say holy T-bone! A few inches reward and he'd have head trauma. As a victim of such I can tell you if you survive it it can still ruin a business, a marriage and a racing career. Not to mention an ability to think clearly. Some have unstable emotions as well. I hope he realizes how lucky he was. Simple rule on the street; never push to 10/10's with others around. And when on the track; consider that safety equipment is no guarantee especially if you flip a car backwards at 160mph.
