Looks like driver error for sure. Probably paying too much attention to his RPM and not enough attention to the road and the direction the car is going.

He could of also overcorrected a slight deviation on the road...

Whatever happened... OUCH, and so sorry for your loss...

To much power to handle for that rookie. Will be a nice repair bill though.

LOL...There was a 19yo kid in an identical one on Saturday at Laguna, TRACKING IT IN THE RAIN!...The car in the video is in much better condition than his right now.......Daddy was not even mad when he came and picked up his little brat. Probably stopped on the way home to get a new one.....

Just because you have the money to buy one does not make you qualified to drive one. But it does really need 700HP.

Apparently this guy is talking to every news outlet that will listen and insisting the car is to blame for this because launch control didn't save him. I've seen the story on several sites.

someone will come along shortly to tell us all how Pzero's are likely to blame, and the lawyers are probably already trying to figure out how they can blame the key or ignition

Don't they come with Michelin PSS? But I get what you're saying. Not the drivers fault. Never is.
