I'm editing the video now. EDIT: Here's the video. The spinning starts at 0:14
Easily one of the funniest things I've ever experienced at autocross. Look out for my video, and he should have one too. Hopefully we can edit them together as a side by side.

I love how you can see the spin coming like 3 cones earlier... did it feel like you were going to before it really broke loose? I've only ever spun a car on track once and it was because of a mechanical failure so I'm always curious about what leads up to it. I mean I've gotten sideways at autoX and definitely slid into/out of corners on track but never actually had that deweighting moment.

Oh yeah, I saw it coming halfway through the slalom. I knew I was going too fast and then the weight transfer became severe. When it started to go I tried to correct but it snapped the other direction.

If there's one thing I've learned about slaloms it's that you can get wayyyyy closer than you think you can. And to start going for the next cone before you get to the current one.
Although you definitely have more power than what I'm used to autox'ing so it's hard to say what should and shouldn't be done. I typically try to maintain one speed through the whole section and even if I'm a bit slow I'll be tidier and come out with a faster time, acceleration(and especially lifting off) are the killers there.
