Fool already crashes his new 2020 supra on track day. He should be learning to drive a coralla first lol. https://www.carscoops.com/2019/09/cr...cringy-moment/

Jackie Ding is the real deal. The kid drives the chit out of a car and has more experience than many of us combined. He did his early days as an Indy light driver. He bought the car with the soul purpose of competing in Global Time Attack. He also had track insurance on the car so he planned for the worst. I feel for him and admire his commitment to tracking and taking that platform to the top. I'm confident he will be back at the track in another Supra real soon.

Have heard this from others who know him as well.

Someone suggested that he wasn't even pushing the car at the time - dropped 2 wheels on the grass for whatever reason. It can happen. Sad to see it happen to any car let alone a new one!

Yeah, the video of incident is on YouTube and you are correct as he was not pushing hard and just ran a little wide dropping two wheels and game over. It happens to the best professional drivers where they drop a wheel or two behind the safety car or just cold tires leaving the pits and things just go south sometimes.

NOTE that there is a video link in the above (two, actually) - Kaspersky Security denies me access to the second one due to a trojan detected. Just FYI to anyone trying to view it without updated AV software and patched players.
