GR86 GR86 crash dashcam footage

[86GR]

This popped up on one of the Facebook GR86 groups

Quite surprised he span out as he had full traction control on and wasn’t being too reckless, I guess it must have been black ice.

He says it was about -10c and he seemed to pretty much use full throttle while changing lanes. Silly.

Black ice.

Best reaction would be immediate on the brakes to stabilise, steer straight and push in clutch, which is not the natural reaction and requires training. If one is gonna drive like that in those conditions....

ESP in itself can't overcome driveline inertia (both on power and liftoff) when it's that slippery...

Half wit , it’s cold (freezing) the GR86 is “playful” on the rear , tyres not the best below 7degrees C, so gives it a load of throttle , it seams an obvious outcome

In - 10°C, I sure hope he wasn't on summers. But even the best winter tyres won't grip on black ice with that throttle position....
