No fear, just very aware. You focus entirely on the pavement and zero time on anything outside 'the lines'. That's why we build 'em SAFE and why safety is at the utmost top of the list at all times.
The car that took the off-road excursion was a full tilt boogie race car. VW Rabbit and very well done and fast. He lost adhesion on all 4, went over the edge backwards, stayed in contact with the ground while still spinning, and ended up facing downhill and upright lodge on top of a scrub brush. Went right between two large boulders and had ZERO damage. :shock: :shock: :shock: He checked it out, cleaned out some rocks and dirt and finished the weekend !
